AI Summary
This bill directs the State Board of Education to develop and implement a comprehensive statewide student information system with enhanced data management and reporting capabilities. By November 1, 2025, the Board must issue a request for proposals for a new student information system that complies with advanced technical standards, including XML, web services protocols, and specific interoperability frameworks. The system is designed to improve data collection, reporting, and tracking for educational purposes, aligning with federal educational program guidelines and the Student Data Accessibility, Transparency and Accountability Act. School districts will be required to use this new system beginning July 1, 2027, and districts that do not comply may forfeit state aid. The bill updates existing statutes to reflect these changes, modernizes technical specifications from version 1.5 to 4.3 of the Schools Interoperability Framework, and mandates that the State Department of Education provide project management, data conversion assistance, and training to school districts during the implementation process. The new system will be used for critical functions such as reporting enrollment data, administering school testing programs, collecting educational indicators, determining student mobility rates, and managing state aid allocations.
