Modification to Personal Curriculum - House Education Committee, SB 403

MASSP had a win today in the House Education Committee. SB 403 (please see past Legislative News) came back before the committee today with "end of course" assessment development back in the bill. We had argued that as the bill came out of the Senate it eliminated the "level playing field" expectation of the new high school requirements. The Chair of the House Education Committee agreed.

From your perspective as a building principal this bill is important to you because it gives an exception to the high school requirements to those students transfering into your school. I've attached a draft of the bill as it came from the Senate. Please reveiw the transfer language. Where the testing language is removed is not longer valid. This is the most recent summary of the bill.
