S 2190 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Revises certain requirements concerning graduation proficiency test and eliminates requirement that graduation proficiency test be administered to eleventh grade students.

This bill eliminates the requirement that New Jersey's high school graduation proficiency test be administered to 11th grade students. It revises existing law to remove the specific mandate for testing 11th graders, while maintaining the requirement for students to demonstrate proficiency through other means to graduate. The change directly affects current 11th grade students and future cohorts, removing a standardized test requirement they previously had to take. The bill focuses on modifying assessment administration timing without altering the overall graduation proficiency standards.
