An Act relative to civic test requirements for graduation

This bill requires all public high schools to administer a civics test identical to the U.S. citizenship civics test before graduation. Students must score at least 60% (60 correct answers out of 100) to graduate or earn a general equivalency diploma, starting in the 2021-2022 school year, with retakes allowed until passing. Special education students are exempt from this requirement. The state education department must establish rules to monitor schools' compliance with this new graduation standard.
