The bill amends various sections of the Revised Code and introduces new provisions aimed at enhancing academic intervention services in public schools, particularly in mathematics. It establishes guidelines for a statewide education management information system that mandates the collection and reporting of data on student participation, performance, and demographics. The bill also introduces new requirements for core curriculum and instructional materials for mathematics from kindergarten to grade twelve, as well as intervention programs. Notably, it repeals section 3313.6032, which previously addressed certain aspects of academic intervention services, to improve accountability and transparency in educational data.

Additionally, the bill outlines the responsibilities of the Department of Education and Workforce in profiling school districts and mandates the creation of performance measures for school report cards, including metrics for post-secondary readiness. It requires the development of mathematics achievement improvement plans for underperforming districts and mandates that schools report on the curricula used. The bill emphasizes the importance of data-driven decision-making and includes provisions for sanctions against districts that fail to report accurate data. It also enhances operational standards for community schools, ensuring compliance with educational laws and standards while promoting professional development in mathematics instruction.
