Parents get K-8 benchmark results

Starting in the 2027-2028 school year, districts that give K-8 benchmark tests must share each student’s results with parents. Results must be in a parent portal or sent by email or letter. If a district has no portal, it can send results to the State Department of Education, which will share them with parents. A benchmark test is an interim test given at least at the start, middle, and end of the year. All sharing must follow state and federal student privacy laws.

State tracks and guides math placement

By December 15, 2026, and every year after, the State Board of Education sends lawmakers a math placement report. It must count and break down by demographics: students eligible for advanced math; students placed in advanced math; students in math intervention; and students in neither. It must also describe the types and formats of advanced and intervention courses. The State Board also provides guidance to districts on building rigorous, appropriate math programs for students.

Law takes effect immediately

The law takes effect as soon as it is passed and approved. Agencies and school districts must start work now to follow the new reporting and guidance rules. Date-based duties still apply on their timelines, like the December 15, 2026 report and the 2027-2028 benchmark sharing.
