Tennessee advances education bills: cutting tests for top students, doubling private school vouchers, and exempting private schools from state tests.
Tennessee lawmakers advanced multiple education bills, including a pilot program to reduce standardized testing in 10 districts, aiming to ease student burden, and a measure to double private school vouchers to 40,000 students.
The testing reduction bill, backed by educators, would limit assessments for students scoring at or above the 40th percentile, while the voucher expansion faces criticism over equity and public funding.
A separate Senate bill allows private schools in the ESA program to skip state tests, raising accountability concerns.
The legislation reflects ongoing debates over testing, school choice, and educational equity.
