"The state is replacing the Gateway assessments with new, more rigorous end-of-course (EOC) tests.
ReplyDeleteStudents will have to pass the courses in which EOCs are given, but will not have to pass the tests
themselves to receive a diploma. The EOC test grades will count 20 percent toward students’ final
semester grades for the first two years and 25 percent thereafter."
Thanks for getting this up and running so quickly. I would also like to thank everyone that participated in the CTE Committee Meeting this past Saturday. It was truly a learning experience for me and I look forward to working with each of you.
