COVID-19 Flexibility for Missed Assessments
• Recently enacted legislation (HB 164 - Section 12) allows districts and schools to:
– Substitute an eligible student’s final course grade in an eligible course for the corresponding high school end-of-course examination
– Students who completed qualifying courses in the 2019-2020 school year also may elect to take the associated end-of-course examinations in a future administration.
Student Eligibility•Students are eligible for this flexibility if they were either:
• Taking a qualifying course AND scheduled to take an end-of-course examination for the first time in the 2019-2020 school year but did not take the test because the administration of the examination was canceled
OR
•Scheduled to retake an end-of-course examination in the 2019-2020 school year and did not retake the test because the administration of the examination was canceled.
