This year s high school junior class will not need to take or pass MCAS tests in order to graduate, under a change approved last week by the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education.
The move is one of a series of pandemic-influenced shifts the state has made within its standardized testing program since COVID-19 first shuttered school buildings last spring.
Students are typically required to pass 10th grade English and math MCAS exams in order demonstrate competency in the two subjects and graduate. Last year s 10th graders, the class of 2022, did not have an opportunity to take those tests last spring because education officials obtained a federal waiver and legislative approval to cancel the spring 2020 MCAS administration in the early days of remote learning. ....

Manyanga said while happy, she hoped in the future more students at the district level would be able to weigh in on these decisions that affect them directly. 
Everyone has something to say, Manyanga said, adding most students in Billerica respond to opinion emails and polls when it comes to their education especially during the last year.  ....
