AI Summary

This bill aims to support the local determination of educational competency and the use of multiple forms of academic assessment. It amends existing laws to allow public school districts to determine the assessment instruments used for the high school competency determination, rather than relying solely on a single test. The bill also clarifies that students with special needs, enrolled in vocational education programs, or with limited English proficiency are considered to have performance that may be difficult to assess.
