STUDENT/ASSESSMENT: Requests the state Department of Education to report relative to the administration of certain standardized tests
HR 8 is a resolution requesting the Louisiana Department of Education to submit annual reports on standardized testing administration for high school students. It specifically requires data on the ACT, WorkKeys, and ASVAB tests, broken down by school district, student demographics, and diploma type (university or career). The reports must cover test participation rates, whether students took multiple tests, and the impact of recent law changes (Act 635) on testing requirements. These reports are due starting in 2025, with the first covering 2022-2025 school years. The resolution aims to inform legislators about testing practices without changing existing requirements.
