Introduced by: Stephen D. Newman | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Standards of Quality; assessments; terms. Changes the term used to refer to certain assessments to "locally developed assessments" from "alternative assessments."

To provide further clarity, the bill also requires local school boards, when administering the locally developed assessments, to distinguish between locally developed assessments and Standards of Learning assessments.
