This bill establishes the "COVID-19 Learning Loss Study Commission" to identify and quantify the impact of the COVID-19 public health emergency on student academic outcomes. The commission will consist of 13 members, including state legislators, the Commissioner of Education, and representatives from various education associations and the public. The commission will analyze data on the overall impact of COVID-19 on student academic outcomes, as well as its impact on pre-existing student achievement disparities. The commission will issue a final report with its findings and recommendations within six months of its first meeting, and the commission will then expire 30 days after submitting the report.
