AI Summary

This bill modifies Arizona's statewide assessment system by adjusting the deadlines for receiving test scores and assessment data, specifically pushing the deadline for all portions of the statewide assessment to May 26th, while allowing contractors to provide unofficial scores by that date to meet the requirement. It also clarifies that the testing window for statewide assessments in grades three through eight cannot begin before the fourth week of April, unless it's an alternate assessment for students with specific educational plans. Additionally, the bill makes minor changes to the language regarding the promotion of third graders based on reading skills and the requirements for intervention and remedial strategies for students with reading deficiencies.
