SB 1108 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Education - As introduced, requires local boards of education to notify the department of education when a board declares itself to be a high performing school district; requires the department to maintain a list of high performing school districts on the department's website. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 1108 requires local school boards in Tennessee to notify the state education department when they designate their district as "high performing." The department must then maintain and publish a list of these districts on its website. This bill applies directly to local school boards and the state education department, creating a new administrative process. It is procedural in nature, focusing on transparency through public listing rather than changing educational standards or funding. The bill does not alter performance criteria or impose new requirements on schools beyond the notification and listing.
