Some high school seniors won’t have to take SAT to graduate this spring because of COVID-19 disruptions

• Authors : High school seniors in Chicago and across Illinois won’t have to take SAT to graduate this spring because of COVID-19 disruptions As they focus on how and when they can reopen high schools, Chicago Public Schools leaders have announced that the class of 2021 will not have to take the SAT test as a graduation requirement. Other Illinois school districts are also being granted the test-optional choice for this year’s graduating seniors. Illinois high school students typically take the SAT test during the spring of their junior year, both for college admissions and because the state typically requires that students sit for the exam in order to earn a high school diploma. But last year’s exams were suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the fall, makeup tests were offered at many Chicago-area high schools, marking what in many cases was the first time they had opened for students since the spring statewide shutdown. Like other districts, CPS is still making the SAT test available for seniors who haven’t yet taken the SAT. CPS has set April 13 and 27 as testing dates, with a makeup on May 18. At a Board of Education Wednesday, CPS CEO Janice Jackson said students are still strongly encouraged to take the exam if it’s needed for college applications. Many colleges have made SAT and ACT tests optional for applicants because of pandemic-related access barriers. The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is looking at whether to extend its one-time test-optional admissions policy for another two years. The U.S. Department of Education under President Joe Biden has announced that it will not allow elementary and secondary schools to forgo spring assessments for what would be a second year in a row. Schools are allowed to postpone spring tests until fall, however.
