Bill > H418

This bill amends Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 69, Section 1D, to prohibit schools from withholding high school diplomas from students who have fulfilled all other graduation requirements, such as passing all their courses, but have not achieved a satisfactory score on a state standardized test. This change is intended to ensure that students are not denied their diplomas solely based on their performance on a single standardized assessment, and this provision will be in effect for three school years following the bill's enactment.
