HB 2420 requires Tennessee's education commissioner to close virtual schools that fail to meet academic performance standards for three consecutive years (as measured by the Tennessee Value-Added Assessment System) or are identified as priority schools. It directly affects virtual schools and their operators, prohibiting nonprofit or for-profit providers from contracting to operate new virtual schools in Tennessee for five years if their school was closed due to poor academic performance. The bill mandates specific closure procedures, including notifying parents within one week and providing enrollment alternatives within 30 days. This legislation focuses on holding virtual schools accountable for student achievement while establishing clear consequences for underperforming operators.
