AI Summary
This bill prohibits the requirement for students to pass state-administered end-of-course (LEAP) tests in order to graduate from high school. Instead, the bill states that a student who successfully completes each required Carnegie unit (a measure of academic credit) for high school graduation shall receive a high school diploma, regardless of their performance on any state-administered test. This change aims to ensure that students are not denied a high school diploma solely based on their test scores, and instead focuses on the successful completion of their required academic coursework.
