| OH | Signed into law 12/2009 | P-12 | Amends accountability provisions applicable to charter schools. When determining whether a community school meets triggers for certain accountability sanctions, bars the state department of education from considering a community school's performance ratings during its first 2 years of operation. Directs the department to reevaluate each community school that the department directed to close at the conclusion of the 2009-10 school year to determine if the school still meets the criteria for such accountability sanctions when the performance ratings for the school's first 2 years of operation are not considered. Bars the department from requiring the school to close at the conclusion of that school year if the school no longer meets those criteria.

| OH | Signed into law 12/2009 | P-12 | Authorizes specified community schools (charter schools) to operate as conversion schools. Authorizes the governing authority of specified community schools to enter into a contract with a different sponsor that is either a local board, governing board of an educational service center, or sponsoring authority designated by the board of trustees of a state university (or the board of trustees itself), provided the school was rated in need of continuous improvement or better for the 2008-09 school year and the sponsor approves the change in sponsorship.
Specifies that the department may not consider a community school's performance ratings during its first two years of operation when determining whether the school meets certain criteria for accountability sanctions. Directs the department to reevaluate each community school that the department directed to close at the conclusion of the 2009-10 school year to determine if the school still meets the sanctions criteria when the school's performance ratings for its first two years of operation are not considered and, if the school no longer meets those criteria, prohibits the department from requiring the school to close at the conclusion of that school year.

| KY | Signed into law 03/2009 | P-12 | Repeals provisions relating to rewards for successful schools. Establishes provisions to recognize schools that would have been rewarded under the former system. Repeals provision directing the state board to develop a formula for a school accountability index.
Requires the state board, after adopting revised academic standards by December 15, 2010 and a revised assessment system for use in the 2011-12 school year, to adopt rules establishing a new accountability system based on the revised standards and assessments. Requires the accountability system to include the results of program assessments of arts and humanities, practical living skills and career studies and writing programs as specified in revised KRS 158.6453 (7)((a) - (c) (revised by 2009 S.B. 1). Directs the state board, before adopting rules relating to the new accountability system, to seek advice from the School Curriculum, Assessment, and Accountability Council; the Office of Education Accountability; the Education Assessment and Accountability Review Subcommittee; and the National Technical Advisory Panel on Assessment and Accountability. Repeals requirement that student be counted for accountability purposes if the student has been enrolled in the school 100 days of the school year prior to the beginning of the statewide testing period; replaces with requirement that student be enrolled in a school for at least a full academic year to be counted for accountability purposes. Repeals provisions relating to procedures for school audits.
Repeals provision requiring the department to report quarterly to the interim joint committee on education on (1) information about the estimated error of the accountability index, as well as information about the connections between index score changes and estimated changes in student performance levels and (2) the annual audit of portfolio scores in ways that serve to minimize the differences between teacher-produced scores and audit-generated scores.
Effective with the 2012-13 school year, requires state assessment results to be reported to schools no later than 75 days following the first day the assessment can be administered. Requires local targets for closing the achievement gap and school improvement plans to address those targets to be reported annually by October 1 (former provisions required adoption mid/late school year every other year). Directs the local superintendent to report to the commissioner of education if a school fails to meet its targets to reduce the gap in student achievement for any student group for 2 consecutive years (former provision required reporting after two successive biennia).
