Miami-Dade and Broward students will take Florida's new standardized tests Thursday following two days of delays because of technological problems.
The school districts announced they will resume computer-based testing for the Florida Standards Assessments for students in grades 8-10 Thursday.
Earlier Wednesday, the Florida Department of Education assured school districts that the issues that prompted the delays had been resolved.
The standardized tests are crucial because officials use them to decide everything from who graduates to whether students are held back in the third grade. This year's tests - which are being used for the first time - are based on the Common Core standards that have sparked opposition from some parents and teachers in Florida and other states.
School superintendents had already been bracing for potential problems, and had warned in recent weeks they weren't sure how the rollout of the new test would go, especially in the middle-school and high-school grades where it's is given online.
