In the 2020-21 school year, LEAs may choose to schedule a Keystone Exam make-up opportunity for the entire Spring 2019-20 cohort of students to meet graduation requirements or other purposes. The Waynesboro Area School District will be administering the Keystone Assessments during the Winter 2020-21 Wave 2 January 4-15, 2021.
Any student enrolled in a Keystone Exam trigger course during the spring of the 2019-20 school year has the right to opt out of the assessment by parental consent, should an LEA schedule a Keystone Exam administration for the entire cohort. Parents wishing to opt their student out of such an administration are not required to follow the procedures set forth in 22 Pa. Code § 4.4(d)(4) (related to religious opt-outs).
