Texas HB92 eliminates certain state-required assessment instruments and end-of-course assessments not mandated by federal law.

Texas HB92 amends the Education Code to reduce the number and frequency of state-required assessment instruments and end-of-course assessments not mandated by federal law. The State Board of Education will adopt rules to minimize these assessments, focusing only on those necessary to comply with the Every Student Succeeds Act. This includes assessments in reading, mathematics, and science. The changes apply starting with the 2025-2026 school year, with immediate effect if approved by a two-thirds vote in both houses.
