The interim superintendent of Boston Public Schools is considering a “new shift” regarding the entrance exam required by the district’s top three schools.

Laura Perille is looking at replacing the test needed to get into Boston Latin School and two other prestigious institutions in the district, according to the Boston Globe. The possibility came up during Tuesday’s city council hearing that looked at school admission policies.

“Boston Public Schools is not making any change to the entrance exam itself,” Boston Public Schools Press Secretary Dan O’Brien wrote in a statement Wednesday. “What we are doing is implementing a new shift to provide the exam school entrance test in students’ classrooms in the fall of 2019. We believe this is a positive step forward to increase access for all students. Because of this, BPS is not proposing any other changes to the exam for this fall.”
