Governor Signed
Summary
The bill authorizes local education agencies to adopt a citizenship grading system that rates students on attendance, deadlines, participation and communication, while allowing parents to opt out. It also establishes statewide test‑out options for core high‑school subjects, letting students earn credit without taking the class. A scholarship program for higher‑education students who earn citizenship grades is funded by voluntary contributions on tax returns.
