Requiring high school students to pass a test on the US Constitution to graduate from high school

HB 2034 requires all West Virginia high school students (grades 9-12) to pass a test on the U.S. Constitution to graduate. The State Board of Education must create the test, which demands an 85% passing score and covers the Constitution's provisions and principles. Students who fail may retake the test weekly until they meet the threshold. The law takes effect July 1, 2025, directly affecting every public high school student in the state.
