SB 6255: Student-centered planning

Improving student performance through student-centered planning.

Summary

  • Encourages each middle school, junior high, and high school to implement a comprehensive guidance and planning program.
  • Directs the Superintendent of Public Instruction (SPI), from funds appropriated for this purpose, to disseminate the curriculum for the program; disseminate electronic planning and performance monitoring tools; disseminate options for diagnostic assessments; conduct regional training seminars; and allocate implementation grants to schools.
  • Requires the SPI to reimburse school districts for diagnostic assessments in 9th grade to enhance guidance and planning for students; this provision is null and void without funding.
