Bill Analysis

Currently, Elementary and secondary schools have accountability standards that they are graded on. This bill would reform those standards by adding criteria that is to be graded on; these criteria include tracking the amount of high school students who receive class credit by examination, the percent of people who earn a diploma in not more than four years; and the percentage of students who participate in a UIL A+ academic event.

Vote Recommendation Notes

This bill does not seem to have a connection with our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
