Abstract

Why this matters
HB 6024 is the School Aid Act counterpart to HB 6023, together aiming to give the Classic Learning Test equal footing with the SAT and ACT in Michigan’s K-12 assessment and college-entrance framework. If enacted, districts and students could use CLT scores where state-recognized entrance exams are required, expanding testing options — a change of particular interest to classical and faith-based education communities.
