House Amendment 001
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the School Code with respect to State assessments. Provides that of the 3 assessments of English language arts and mathematics administered to students in a secondary education program, one shall be the designated State assessment as selected by the State Board of Education (instead of requiring one of these assessments to include a college and career ready determination). Requires the State Board of Education to follow a competitive procurement process pursuant to the Illinois Procurement Code to seek bids from at least 2 separate vendors for a college entrance exam and to offer separate contracts to all qualified bidders to administer at least 2 college entrance exams. Requires each school district to administer one of these 2 college entrance exams to all eligible students during a regularly scheduled school day. Provides that, subject to appropriations for a college entrance exam, the State Board of Education shall pay for each student to take one college entrance exam's base product that renders a college reportable score.
