Bill Analysis

Summary: HB 210 would allow the Commissioner of Education to hold an investigation related to a complaint about information innacurately loaded into the Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) as it relates to accountability and accreditation.

Analysis: HB 210 would provide an administrative change that may or may not lead to more government transparency regarding public school accountability and accreditiation complaints. Therefore, we stand neutral on HB 210.
