House Bill 657 amends the Education Code to require the admission, review, and dismissal (ARD) committee of a student who participates in a school district's special education program and who does not perform satisfactorily on a statewide standardized test to meet before the student is administered the test for the second time and to authorize the ARD committee at such a meeting to promote the student to the next grade level if the committee concludes that the student has made sufficient progress toward the measurable academic goals contained in the student's individualized education program.
