Directs the Board of Education, in prescribing the Standards of Learning assessments, to provide local school boards the option of administering tests for United States History to 1877, United States History: 1877 to the Present, and Civics and Economics. Currently, the course content for these social studies areas are taught at different times between the 6th and the 8th grades in Commonwealth's school divisions; the Standards of Learning assessment for social studies at the 8th grade level covers all three areas. This provision will not become effective unless an appropriation effectuating its purposes is included in the 2000 appropriation act, passed during the 2000 Session of the General Assembly, and signed into law by the Governor.
