| WV | Signed into law 05/2001 | P-12 | Creates a system of education performance audits as a tool for determining the quality of education. Stipulates that measures used to evaluate performance: (1) are clearly aligned with the educational goals and expectations established for the student, school and school system performance, including student success in postsecondary education and work; (2) reflect a priority for student progress, health and safety; and (3) are limited in number and easily comparable to national measures. Requires state board to conduct a review of the system of education performance audits and to submit a final report including any necessary revisions of its policy on the system of education performance audits and recommendations for statutory changes, if any, to the legislative oversight commission on education accountability at its interim meeting in December, 2001. The state board is required to examine performance indicators utilized by various organizations to compare the performance of state education systems for potential use in the system of education performance audits. The state board also must consider methods for assigning accreditation status, such as weighting the attainment of performance standards so that high performing schools and school systems can be fully accredited while correcting deficiencies on the process standards, except that process standards affecting the health and safety of students shall be weighted equally with the performance standards.
