SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Testing of home-schooled children. Permits a student who is home-schooled, upon the written request of a parent, to take the battery of achievement tests that have been approved by the Board of Education for use in the public schools, including the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) and Advanced Placement tests in the public schools. The bill provides that such student must take the same achievement tests on the same day, at the same time, and under the same testing conditions as public school students. The tests must be scored together with the tests of other students in the public schools in the manner prescribed by the school board. The student may take the achievement tests without charge; however, the school board may assess the same charge for the administration of Advanced Placement tests that is required of public school students.
