Local Education Agencies - As introduced, requires the department of education, by July 31 each year, to list on its website each LEA designated as a high performing school district for the upcoming school year and how long the LEA will be designated a high performing school district before having to meet the criteria for re-designation. - Amends TCA Title 49.
SB 1175 requires Tennessee's Department of Education to publish annually on its website, by July 31, a list of school districts designated as "high performing" for the upcoming school year. The list must include each district's current designation status and the duration they will maintain that status before needing to requalify under the existing criteria. This bill directly affects Tennessee public school districts that receive high-performing designations, adding a transparency requirement for how long their status will last. The law does not change the criteria for high-performing status but mandates public disclosure of the designation timeline.
