AI Summary
This bill eliminates the mandatory administration of the ACT WorkKeys test or a similar assessment that measures a student's ability to apply reading and math skills for employment purposes. It amends the Revised School Code by removing the requirement for the Michigan Department of Education to administer such an assessment, though school districts and public schools are not prohibited from doing so voluntarily. The bill also includes provisions related to the administration and scoring of the Michigan Merit Examination, which assesses students in subjects like English, math, science, and social studies.
