Staff Analysis of the Legislation
|
Under current law, the Arizona Department of Education (ADE) is primarily tasked with administering the assessment tests while the State Board of Education (SBE) is responsible for providing annual reports on the assessment results to schools and districts by September 1st. This bill requires the ADE to fulfill a local education agency’s (LEA) request for a raw data file of assessment data within 30 days and in a format that is usable for assessment diagnostics and allows LEAs to share the assessment data with the LEA’s governing body. The LEA must follow all applicable student data privacy laws and may not publicly disclose individual student achievement results. |
