AI Summary
This bill requires the Tennessee Department of Education to create an annual report detailing the number of students who complete the early graduation program. Specifically, the department must submit this report to two legislative committees - the Senate Education Committee and the House of Representatives Committee responsible for K-12 education - by September 1st each year. The bill amends existing Tennessee law by adding a new subsection to Section 49-6-8103, mandating this reporting requirement. The early graduation program, which allows students to complete high school requirements ahead of the traditional four-year timeline, will now be more closely tracked and documented. The legislation will take effect immediately upon becoming law, with the stated purpose of serving the public welfare by providing transparency and insight into student academic achievement and early graduation trends in Tennessee.
