The bill amends the "Education Accountability Act" by revising the evaluation system for local education agencies (LEAs) and public schools, including the assessment instruments and reporting requirements. It introduces a new title for section 16-97.1-1, emphasizing the use of diverse assessment methods to accommodate different learning styles and needs, and mandates the inclusion of cultural and language diversity considerations. The bill requires the board of education to maintain a confidential data system for educator assessments, mandates comprehensive three-year district improvement plans, changes the annual action plan deadline from September 1 to December 31, and requires principals to set performance goals and plans for student improvement. It also calls for an annual report on aggregated graduating student data by race, ethnicity, and gender, and outlines reporting requirements for school districts on various operational aspects, including the implementation of high-quality curriculum and special education services.

Additionally, the bill updates the reporting and accountability requirements for English language learner (ELL) programs, replacing the term "limited English proficient" with "English language learner" and modifying the data schools must report. It removes certain reporting requirements, such as expulsion and promotion rates, and the review of district grant implementation. The bill mandates the department of education to use existing resources for improvement plans, appoint a responsible individual for assistance and intervention, and conduct at least five school district education reviews annually starting in the academic year 2024-2025. It also requires school districts to file personnel contracts and collective bargaining agreements annually and mandates annual reports to various stakeholders and legislative committees.
