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 would require the school performance report to contain additional information about the number of students achieving positive placement after graduating from high school. Under the bill, positive placement would include placement in an apprenticeship.

AI Summary

This bill requires the Commissioner of Education to update school performance reports, often called "report cards," to include new information about what graduates do after leaving high school. Currently, these reports already show outcomes like graduation rates, dropout rates, and college enrollment, but this bill adds a requirement to report on "positive placement" for graduates. "Positive placement" is defined to include students who enter an apprenticeship program, meaning these reports will now offer a more comprehensive view of post-graduation success beyond just college enrollment.
