Dallas public school students to take fewer assessment tests

DALLAS (AP) — Students in the second-largest public school district in Texas will be taking fewer tests to avoid possible duplication of some exams and concentrate more on state-required learning.

The number of assessment tests that Dallas Independent School District students will take will drop by a third in the upcoming school year, according to The Dallas Morning News (http://bit.ly/2amvsqJ).
