MI HB6017

Suspends the requirement for districts to administer the Michigan merit examination (MME) to receive state aid during the 2020-2021 school year, subject to federal law.

Allows districts contacted by homeschool students to decline administering the MME for the 2020-2021 school year if the district itself is not administering it to enrolled pupils that year.

Updates references from "shall" to "must" throughout the statute and corrects the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act citation from "1769i" to "1769j."

Maintains all existing MME requirements for other school years, including components for college entrance tests, work skills assessments, M-STEP testing, and social studies evaluation.

Preserves requirements for districts to include MME scores on high school transcripts, provide accommodations for students with disabilities, and administer exams during the last 12 weeks of the school year (except 2020-2021).
