HB 356 Standards of Quality; Standards of Accreditation.
Introduced by: C. Richard Cranwell | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Standards of Accreditation; student outcome measures. Requires the Board of Education to include in the student outcome measures, which are required by the Standards for Accreditation, tests for various grade levels and classes, as determined by the Board, in accordance with the Standards of Learning. These Standards of Learning assessments must include, but need not be limited to, tests for English, mathematics, science, and social studies. A second enactment requires the Board to develop and implement, as a component of the student outcome measures required by § 22.1-253.13:3 B, currently known as Standards of Learning assessments, an end-of-course test for world geography which must be a separate and stand-alone test and not part of or paired with other end-of-course social studies assessments.
