Hey Susan, we do have the testing in our high schools! It's called the HSPA stands for High School Proficiency Assesment. They take it in 11th grade, if they don't pass they have to take it again in 12th. If they don't pass, they don't graduate! I have a 9th grader who is very bright, but he does not test well. It will be interesting to see how he does. If you don't pass it in 11th grade then in 12 grade you have to take a class that prepares you for it. I NEVER would have graduated, believe me.
