Senate Bill 733, also known as House Bill 1135, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 49, concerning educational testing. The bill specifically revises Section 49-1-907 by deleting the first sentence and replacing it with a new requirement that the Department of Education must submit an early grades reading report to the education committees of both the Senate and the House of Representatives by December 31 of each year.
This change aims to enhance accountability and ensure that legislative bodies are informed about early reading progress in schools. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of timely reporting for the public welfare.
