Senators print RS on education rules after committee review of content standards
Summary
Senator Dave Lent presented an RS concerning education rules; the committee agreed to print RS 32586C1 after hearing a summary that some content‑standard revisions were accepted and some were rejected at the State Board of Education's request.
Senator Dave Lent (District 33) presented RS 32586C1, summarizing recent rule‑making actions on K‑12 content standards. Lent said the committee accepted revisions to five content standards but noted outstanding work on fourth‑grade social studies. He also said the committee rejected a proposed change to English language arts that would have replaced a communications (speech) credit with a digital‑technology credit, and that three other dockets were rejected at the State Board of Education’s request.
Committee members moved and seconded a motion to print RS 32586C1 so staff can draft the formal rule language; the motion passed by voice vote. No public testimony was recorded on the RS during this session.
