| CA | Signed into law 10/2011 | P-12 | From bill summary: Requires the superintendent of public instruction to develop recommendations, to be reported to the fiscal and appropriate policy committees of both houses of the legislature by November 2012, for the reauthorization of the statewide pupil assessment program. Requires the recommendations to include a plan for transitioning to a system of high-quality assessments. Requires the recommendations to
consider including specified characteristics in the reauthorized assessment system. Defines, for purposes of the Leroy Greene California Assessment of Academic Achievement Act (the Greene Act), formative
assessment, high-quality assessment and interim assessment. Makes the Greene Act inoperative on July 1, 2014, and repeals the act as of January 1, 2015. By extending the time period during which school districts are required to perform various duties relating to the administration of achievement tests, the bill imposes a state-mandated local program. Requires the state department of education to use certain federal funds, and any other available state and federal funds, to implement the provisions of this bill. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/asm/ab_0201-0250/ab_250_bill_20111008_chaptered.pdf

| UT | Signed into law 03/2011 | P-12 | Directs the state board of education to approve a benchmark assessment for districts and charter schools to assess the reading proficiency of 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders at the beginning, middle and end of the school year, and report the assessment results to a student's parent or guardian. Provides that if a benchmark assessment or supplemental reading assessment indicates a student need in reading, the district or charter must provide focused intervention, administer formative assessments to measure the success of the intervention, inform the parent of activities the parent may engage in to enhance the student's reading proficiency, and provide the parent with information on appropriate interventions available to the student outside the regular school day that may include tutoring, before/after-school programs, or summer school.
Directs the state board of education to contract with an educational technology provider for a diagnostic assessment system for reading for students in grades K-3. Requires that the diagnostic assessment system for reading be available to applicant districts and charter schools beginning in the 2011-12 school year. Provides the diagnostic assessment system for reading must include (1) a benchmark assessment to be administered at the beginning, middle and end of grades K-3; (2) formative assessments to be administered every 2-4 weeks for students at high risk of not attaining proficiency in reading; (3) align with the state's language arts core curriculum; (4) include a data analysis component that has specified capabilities, including individualized student progress reports and lesson plans that may be used to develop reading skills. Provides the benchmark and formative assessments must be available to be downloaded to a portable technology device so that a teacher may sit beside a student as the student is being assessed at any location in the school.
Directs a district and charter school governing board to monitor the learning gains of a school's students as reported by the benchmark assessments, and require a reading achievement plan to be revised if the district or governing board determines a school's students are not making adequate learning gains.
Directs the state board to evaluate the effects of the diagnostic assessment system for reading by comparing the learning gains of students in schools that use the diagnostic assessment system with the gains of students in schools that do not use the system, and submit a report on the evaluation to the public education appropriations subcommittee by November 2013. Clarifies that certain district or charter school actions are prerequisites to receiving funds rather than precede an allocation of funds through the K-3 Reading Improvement Program; clarifies that one such action is professional development specifically for classroom teachers in grades K-3. Specifies goals that an applicant district or charter school must submit to be eligible for program funds. Provides that a district or charter school may use program funds for portable technology devices to administer reading assessments. Specifies criteria under which a district or charter school may, after three years, not receive additional funds under the K-3 Reading Improvement Program. Directs the state board of education to make an annual report to the public education appropriations subcommittee that includes information on student learning gains and trends, and that may include recommendations on how to increase the percentage of 3rd graders reading on grade level.
Makes an appropriation. Provides legislative intent that if this and H.B. 301 http://le.utah.gov/~2011/bills/hbillenr/hb0301.pdf both pass, (which did happen), that the amendments to subsection 53A-17a-150(15) in this bill supersede the amendments to the same section in H.B. 301. http://le.utah.gov/~2011/bills/hbillenr/hb0302.pdf
