Plain-language change summary

The amendment to Senate Bill 149 includes a provision that requires student growth information to be clearly shown in annual school report cards. Additionally, for schools that receive a grade of B or lower and have exceeded growth expectations, their performance grade will be boosted by one letter grade. The bill also establishes a task force to evaluate how school performance grades are calculated and to consider including more performance indicators that could provide a better picture of a school's achievements. These changes aim to ensure that school performance assessments are fairer and more reflective of student success, particularly for schools making significant progress.
