Many districts are cash strapped (were down to 4 days a week not long ago) and only regents requirements were taught. Reducing the mandatory classes means you allow for districts to cut some classes with no consequences - it means that in poorer districts there won’t be any chemistry nor any physics anymore.

Could mean reducing opportunity for students in those school districts to succeed in any college major where high school chemistry and/or physics is a helpful or necessary prerequisite to college chemistry and/or physics.
