Summary

The bill eliminates Virginia’s requirement that any Standards of Learning (SOL) assessment or approved local alternative test make up at least ten percent of a middle or high school student’s course grade. It affects students in grades 7‑12, as well as teachers and school districts that set grading policies. Removing the mandate gives schools more flexibility in how they weight assessments.
