NH Suspending Standardized Testing Due to COVID-19

On Monday, New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu announced the suspension of standardized testing requirements for the state’s students, reports The Laconia Daily Sun.

Sununu states, “While remote learning has gotten off to an incredible start, we must continue to have flexibility in our approach to education, and onerous standardized tests from Washington send the wrong message to New Hampshire families who are already working hard to adapt to this new, challenging environment.”

As SATs and 11th grade assessments cannot be administered remotely, efforts have begun to make them available to students in the summer or early fall.
