Bill > H3206

This bill requires school districts in South Carolina to develop and annually update detailed reports about racial disparities in student academic performance. Specifically, each school district must create a summary for each of its schools that tracks student performance on national academic assessments like the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and others, focusing on racial differences in test results. The summary must include a five-year trend chart showing how these disparities have changed over time. Once created, each school must receive its own report and prominently display it on the front doors of the school, ensuring transparency about academic performance across different racial groups. The goal appears to be increasing awareness of educational inequities and potentially spurring efforts to address racial gaps in academic achievement. The bill would take effect immediately upon the Governor's approval, mandating that school districts begin compiling and publishing these reports.
