Georgia will reduce the number of standardized tests taken by public school students, among other measures, Gov. Brian Kemp announced Feb. 4, in what is seen as a move to roll back the state’s rigorous testing system.

Kemp and state Superintendent Richard Woods said Tuesday that five mandatory standardized tests for Georgia public school students and four for high school students will be cut.
