The bill mandates the Public Education Department to compile and disseminate an annual report detailing all school-age students who have not graduated from high school within four years of entering the ninth grade. This report, referred to as the "annual report of all out-of-cohort students," must be completed by July 15 following each school year and will include data on students enrolled in public schools during the previous year.

The report is to be shared with various stakeholders, including the higher education department, public post-secondary institutions, adult basic education providers, workforce development programs, and school districts or charter schools that offer programs aimed at helping these out-of-cohort students achieve a high school diploma or equivalency credential. The bill defines "out-of-cohort students" as those who have not graduated within the specified timeframe, thereby highlighting the need for targeted educational support for this group.
