AI Summary
This joint resolution approves regulations from the South Carolina State Board of Education related to the state's assessment program, specifically Regulation Document Number 5359. The resolution updates outdated language in the state's educational assessment regulations, replacing references to the No Child Left Behind Act with the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), which has been in effect since 2015. It also updates terminology around state assessments, changing references from the discontinued South Carolina Palmetto Assessment of State Standards (SCPASS) to the current SC READY assessment. The purpose of these changes is to ensure the regulation uses current legislative and testing terminology, allowing for easier future updates without requiring additional regulatory amendments. The joint resolution will take effect upon approval by the Governor, and the Notice of Drafting for these proposed amendments was published in the State Register on August 23, 2024.
