Bill summary

House amendment to the 2nd edition makes the following changes. Deletes the requirement that the State Board of Education report on the elimination of reporting requirements and the reduction or changes in the data entry workload for local school administrative units due to the PowerSchool application or any other component of the Instructional Improvement System. Instead, states the General Assembly's priorities and in order to implement those priorities requires the Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee to study the following: (1) the elimination of reporting requirements, (2) reduction or changes in the data entry workload for school administrative units, and (3) the availability of evaluable performance and outcome data and information as a result of the implementation of the PowerSchool application or any other component of the Instructional Improvement System. Requires a report to the 2014 Regular Session of the 2013 General Assembly concerning the impact of the implementation of the PowerSchool application or any other component of the Instructional Improvement System.
