SB 2309 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Education - As introduced, requires the office of research and education accountability in the office of the comptroller of the treasury to submit a copy of its annual report detailing the results of certain tests administered to recipients of education freedom scholarships to the legislative librarian. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 2309 requires Tennessee's Comptroller's Office to send an annual report on standardized test results for students using education freedom scholarships (a school choice program) to the legislative librarian. The bill amends state law to add this reporting requirement, ensuring legislators receive data on scholarship recipients' academic performance. It directly affects students participating in the education freedom scholarship program and the Comptroller's Office, which must now include this report in its annual submission. The key mechanism is mandating the legislative librarian receive these test results, increasing transparency for lawmakers about scholarship program outcomes.
