What’s in it

This bill modifies the duties of the department of education (DE) related to electronic systems. The bill requires the director of DE to approve, coordinate, and supervise the use of electronic data and information processing by school districts, area education agencies, and merged areas, including the procurement of a comprehensive, statewide data collection system that must facilitate data collection between the student information systems of all school districts, accredited nonpublic schools, and area education agencies.

Read the full explanation

The director of the department of education is required to procure the comprehensive, statewide data collection system using a process that requires the issuance of requests for proposal. The bill establishes requirements that the data collection system must satisfy. The bill requires that DE modernize its electronic systems and procedures in order to ensure the proper disbursement of moneys in a timely manner and to ensure that DE’s systems are able to communicate with other state agencies, and with school districts, accredited nonpublic schools, charter schools, and innovation zone schools. The modernization must include the deployment of a portal, on or before July 1, 2027, which satisfies requirements established in the bill.
