Excerpts
ATLANTIC CITY — Gov. Phil Murphy announced the first steps that New Jersey will take this school year to begin transitioning away from the current statewide student assessment.
Among the proposals introduced are
reductions in the length of testing for all grades by nearly 25 percent
and the weight the assessments have on teacher evaluations.
The
state Board of Education also will be asked to consider streamlining
graduation requirements by reducing the number of required tests in high
school from six to two (Algebra 1 and English/Language Arts 10),
ensuring that educators and parents receive test data in a more timely
manner and providing flexibility for first-year English learners on the
language proficiency test.
The changes will be implemented for the 2018-19 school year.
