SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

School accreditation and pupil performance; multiple criteria. Directs the Board of Education, in establishing accreditation standards and determining requirements for graduation and student achievement, to seek the assistance and input of teacher education faculty at the Commonwealth's public institutions of higher education, professional educators, parents, and community members. The Board is to incorporate the use of multiple criteria in determining the accreditation status of public schools. In addition, the measure provides that the results of any Standards of Learning assessments may constitute one of multiple criteria, but shall not be the sole or primary basis, for the awarding any verified units of credit required for a standard or advanced studies diploma.
