Bill > A03146

This bill amends the New York education law to remove time limits on standardized tests in city school districts with a population of one million or more (which effectively means New York City). Specifically, the legislation prohibits any time restrictions on state assessments, state-created tests, state-administered tests, tests created by the city district, or any other standardized tests and examinations when they are administered to students in the city district. By eliminating time constraints, the bill aims to provide students with more flexibility and potentially reduce test-related stress. The change would apply to all standardized tests, regardless of whether they are created by the state or the local city school district, and would override any existing rules or regulations that previously imposed time limitations on test-taking. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law.
