Bill > HB4186

This bill requires high school students in West Virginia to pass a test on the United States Constitution as a graduation requirement. The test, created by the State Board of Education, will assess students' understanding of the Constitution and require a high passing grade of 85% or better. Students will have multiple opportunities to retake the test until they achieve the necessary proficiency. The goal is to ensure that graduating seniors have a strong knowledge of the contents of the U.S. Constitution. The bill will take effect on July 1, 2024.
