Introduced by: Frank M. Ruff | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Standards of Learning assessments; administration in private schools. Authorizes the Board of Education to enter into agreements for the administration of the Standards of Learning (SOL) assessments in private schools at the request of a Virginia private school. Any such agreements must provide that the administration be provided at a cost equal to the direct and indirect costs to the Commonwealth of such administration. These costs must be paid entirely by the relevant private school to ensure that no state or local funds are expended for any such assessment administration, scoring, analysis, or other related services. Under current law, the Board may accredit private nursery schools at their request. In addition, the Board may provide for the accreditation of private elementary, middle, and high schools "in accordance with standards prescribed by it, taking reasonably into account the special circumstances and factors affecting such private schools."
