Bill Summary
This bill requires the Commissioner of Education to include information about the placement of students following graduation in the school performance reports, which are referred to as "report cards" under current law. School performance reports contain information on a number of student outcomes, including graduation and dropout rates, and post-secondary school enrollment. This bill also requires the school performance report to contain information about the number of students achieving placement after graduating from high school, including placement in an apprenticeship.
AI Summary
This bill requires the Commissioner of Education to update school report cards, which are official documents detailing student outcomes, to include information about where graduates go after high school, specifically noting placements in apprenticeships. This addition aims to provide a more comprehensive picture of student success beyond traditional post-secondary education, such as college enrollment, by also tracking students who enter vocational training or skilled trades through apprenticeships.
