Preferred term

high school exit exams  

Definition(s)

  • High school exit exams are part of a broader educational agenda that seeks to increase standards in public education. Requiring graduating students to take an exam to demonstrate mastery of content upon finishing high school reflects the academic achievement of the individual and provides an accountability measure for schools by indicating the proportion of their students that meet graduation standards.
