 | | 2/3/2016 | | | | |  | | Governor Wolf Signs Bill to Delay the Implementation of the Keystone Exams Harrisburg, PA - Today, Governor Wolf signed Senate Bill 880 into law which delays the graduation requirement associated with the state's end-of-course tests, known as the Keystone Exams, for two years, until the 2018-19 school year. The Keystone exams are intended to ensure that students are prepared for postsecondary education or the 21stcentury workforce. However, there have been issues with the implementation of the Keystone Exams, and it is prudent to allow more time to evaluate the best options of measuring student success. | |  | |
