Delaware education officials would study other ways to test students

The resolution would direct the Education Department to review other ways to test students. The review would cover tests given throughout the school year and tests that track growth, with special attention to students with learning disabilities. The House would first need to adopt the resolution. The department would involve educators, special education professionals, school leaders, families, and student representatives. It would assess whether the options are workable, the technology needed, and their cost.

The Education Department would send a report with its findings and recommendations. The governor, leaders of the House and Senate, and two legislative services officials would receive the report. The House would first need to adopt the resolution. The department would have to send the report by June 30, 2026.
