Bill > H334

This bill proposes to amend existing law regarding accommodations for special needs students taking the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) examination, which is a standardized test used in Massachusetts to assess student proficiency in various subjects. Specifically, the bill seeks to insert language into the law that ensures children with special needs are provided with the same accommodations they regularly use or require in the classroom throughout the entire year, not just during the MCAS test. This aims to create a more consistent and supportive testing environment for these students by aligning their testing conditions with their established educational support.
