Gov. DeSantis Will Require High School Seniors To Take Civics Exam

Newly Sworn-In Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Makes Announcement Regarding Florida Supreme Court In Miami

Governor Ron DeSantis says his administration will require all high school seniors in Florida to take a civics exam, similar to one taken by people who want to become naturalized U.S. citizens.

The governor made the announcement on Tuesday, saying it's just one part of an effort to make civics important again.

While students will be required to take the test, a spokeswoman for the governor says that for now, a student who does not pass the exam will still graduate if all other requirements are fulfilled.
