HB 865 -- School Building Report Cards

Sponsor:  Davis

Current law requires the State Board of Education to adopt a
policy for public reporting of information by school districts.
This bill requires an annual report for each building in a
district to be made available in several ways, including but not
limited to, providing the report when a student enrolls or
receives grades, in newspapers, or on the Internet.  The bill
deletes the requirement for the development of multiple
reporting models and substitutes a standard form, which
districts may use, and deletes the information required on
extracurricular activities and their costs, as well as deleting
the requirement for reporting the number of hours of attendance,
while retaining the requirement for days of attendance.  Instead
of reporting financial information on a building level only when
a district has 2 or more buildings that hold the same grades,
the bill requires reporting financial information on the
district as a whole and by attendance center.
