AI Summary
This bill addresses the implementation of a statewide student information system in Oklahoma, with several key provisions. By November 1, 2025, the State Board of Education must issue a request for proposals for a new student information system that meets specific technical standards, including updated XML and Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF) specifications. Until July 1, 2027, school districts must continue to comply with existing system requirements, and the State Department of Education can define data submission requirements. By March 1, 2026, the Board must procure a statewide student information system that all school districts will use for operations, reporting, testing, data collection, and State Aid calculations. The bill also modifies state law to mandate that beginning July 1, 2027, all school districts must use the newly procured student information system, and districts not complying with the system's standards may forfeit State Aid. Additionally, the bill makes various technical updates to state education funding laws, including gender-neutral language modifications and adjustments to State Aid calculation procedures. The act is set to become effective on July 1, 2025, with an emergency clause allowing immediate implementation upon passage.
