Summary
The purpose of this bill is to describe the constitutional authority of the State Board of Education for the general supervision of the public schools and the statutory Process for Improving Education, including student performance as the ultimate measure of whether a thorough and efficient education is being provided. It recognizes the necessity of judgment and reasonable discretion by the state board to balance the need for local autonomy and flexibility to improve student performance with the letter of the law for school operations. It then authorizes the board to approve alternatives proposed by county boards and schools for instructional time and provides parameters for those alternatives. Finally, the bill makes findings for consideration by the state board on maximizing learning time.
