SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Standards of Quality. Requests the Board of Education to revise the Standards of Quality to ensure that these statutory standards are realistic vis-a-vis the Commonwealth's current educational needs and practices. The Board is requested to (i) examine the organization and details of the Standards of Quality in relation to other statutory law governing public education in Virginia, the Commonwealth's Appropriation Act, and the Board's regulations on school accreditation, (ii) identify current provisions of the Standards of Quality that would be more appropriately included in other law or regulation and vice versa; (iii) prescribe provisions that more accurately reflect the efforts of Virginia's school divisions; and (iv) identify any funding provided outside the Standards of Quality framework that might be used to provide part or all of the funding to support any such revised provisions. The Board must report its findings and recommendations to the Governor and the 2003 Session of the General Assembly.
