AI Summary

This bill amends the fourth paragraph of Section 1I of Chapter 69 of the General Laws to require that students with special needs be afforded the same accommodations on the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) examination that they use or require in the classroom throughout the year. This ensures that special needs students are not disadvantaged when taking the MCAS test and can access the accommodations they rely on in their everyday learning.
