Introduced in the Senate on April 21, 2004, to require schools to administer to all high school juniors the nationally recognized achievement test proposed by Senate Bill 1153 as a replacement for the Michigan Education Assessment Program test (MEAP); and require schools to include on high school transcripts the pupil's scaled score on each subject area of the test and the pupil's attendance record. The bill would also include low scores on the new test as part of the definition of what constitutes an “at risk pupil” for purposes of directing extra state and federal money to the student’s school
