The bill H. 3206 aims to address racial disparities in academic testing results within South Carolina's school districts. It mandates that each school district develop a summary for every school that details racial disparities in student performance on various national academic assessments, such as the PSAT, SAT, and ACT. The summaries must include five-year trend charts and be updated annually. Additionally, each school is required to post its summary report on its front doors and provide the report to the school annually.

To implement this, the bill introduces a new section, 59-18-940, to the South Carolina Code of Laws, outlining the specific requirements for the summaries and trend charts. The legislation emphasizes transparency and accountability in addressing educational disparities by ensuring that performance data is readily accessible to the public. The act will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
