Bill > HB4794

This bill requires all high school students in West Virginia to pass a test on the United States Constitution to graduate, starting July 1, 2026. The test, developed by the State Board of Education and made public, will assess a rigorous understanding of the Constitution's provisions and principles, with a high passing score of 85 percent or better. Students who don't pass on their first attempt will have opportunities to retake the test after a week, ensuring graduating seniors possess a strong knowledge of this foundational document.
