School administrators board reporting requirements modified.
Related bill: SF3821
AI Generated Summary
Purpose
- To require the Board of School Administrators to increase transparency about principal preparation programs by publicly reporting a summary of recent data.
Main Provisions
- The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024 section 122A.14 subdivision 10.
- It requires, by December 31, 2018 and annually thereafter, the Board to report and publish on its website the cumulative summary results of three years of data that were reported to the board under Minnesota Statutes section 122A.091 subdivision 1.
- The reporting is to be done for each principal preparation program (the programs that train school principals).
What this changes in practice
- Moves from a potential internal or separate reporting requirement to a public, website-published, three-year cumulative summary for every principal preparation program.
- Makes the data more accessible to the public, educators, and policymakers, aiming to improve accountability and program quality.
Practical implications
- The Board will publicly display aggregated three-year data for each principal preparation program each year.
- Stakeholders can use the published summaries to compare programs and identify areas for improvement.
Effective date and scope notes
- The specific excerpt indicates the reporting requirement applies starting in 2018 and continues annually, but the excerpt does not include additional details about implementation timelines beyond that deadline. The statute being amended is Minnesota Statutes 2024, subsection 122A.14, subdivision 10.
Significance
- Emphasizes transparency in educator preparation and may influence program evaluation, accreditation, or improvement efforts for principal training programs.
