Local Education Agencies - As enacted, allows certain schools in need of intervention to exit the school turnaround pilot program before the 2024-2025 school year. - Amends TCA Title 49.

This Tennessee law allows certain struggling schools to leave the state's school turnaround pilot program early if they have not met specific performance goals by the end of the 2023-2024 school year. To qualify for this early exit, a school must be designated as a Title I school, serve students in grades six through eight, and be unable to meet the state's required exit criteria. When a school exits the program, the local school board must formally notify the state education commissioner and the independent turnaround expert, which immediately ends the school's turnaround committee. Additionally, the law ensures that the independent turnaround expert is paid only for services rendered up to the date of the school's exit, preventing further charges for future services.
