District are required to assess all one hundred (100) questions of the US Citizenship Naturalization Test; however, districts have the ability to decide how the assessment is given, i.e. multiple choice, question and answer, orally, etc. Districts will also determine the passing percent a student will need in order to fulfill the graduation requirement. Students may take the assessment anytime between their 7th and 12th grade year. Please note that the instructions on the assessment by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services are not the rules for district administration, but for someone to become a US citizen, please disregard.
