AMENDMENT
TO Every Student Succeeds Act
A significant but seldom noticed amendment to the Every Child Achieves Act is that made by Senator Susan Collins and Senator Bernie Sanders. The amendment passed with the final bill!. It says in part:
(a) "Innovative assessment system defined:
The term 'innovative assessment system' means a system of assessments that may include:
(1) Competency-based assessments, instructionally embedded assessments, interim assessments, cumulative year end assessments, or performance based assessments that combine into an annual summative determination for a student which may be administered through computer adapted assessments
AND
(2) Assessments that validate when students are ready to demonstrate mastery or proficiency and allow for differentiated student support based on individual learning needs.
