RELATING TO EDUCATION.

Summary

The bill mandates that children educated at home must appear in person each year for specific state assessments and universal screenings at the public school they would otherwise attend. It applies to kindergarten entry, first‑ and second‑grade screenings, and the statewide English‑language‑arts and math tests (or the Hawaiian immersion alternative) for grades 3‑8 and 11. The goal is to let the Department of Education monitor progress and identify any learning needs while preserving parental choice.
