Summary

The act allows each school district to design its own measures of quality, including student participation in "vibrant learning" projects and other locally chosen performance metrics, as long as they align with state academic standards. Districts must publish these results online, disaggregated by subgroups, and the state may offer technical help and a modest financial incentive. If over 60% of districts adopt such systems, every district will be required to implement them within two years.
