AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to computer-based assess-
ment technology apportionment
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds it an
essential goal to ensure that all New York students receive a high-qual-
ity education. The legislature supports the goals of the board of
regents in developing a rich educational system that provides multiple
pathways to graduation, so that all students are college and career
ready. The legislature also recognizes that ensuring our students are
fully prepared to compete in the global marketplace requires a signif-
icant investment of time and resources. As such, it is vitally important
to invest wisely in the development and administration of high-quality
assessments that not only measure the progress of students attaining
such standards, but also enhance the overall goal of student learning.
However, the financial investments associated with the development and
administration of high-quality assessments are not yet fully measured,
and have the potential to be significant. Therefore, the legislature
determines that the costs associated with the development, implementa-
tion, and administration of high-quality assessments shall not be borne
by local taxpayers, and shall instead be fully funded with financial
support from the state.
§ 2. The education law is amended by adding a new section 756 to read
as follows:
§ 756. COMPUTER-BASED ASSESSMENT TECHNOLOGY APPORTIONMENT. 1. IN ADDI-
TION TO ANY OTHER APPORTIONMENTS UNDER THIS CHAPTER, FOR AID PAYABLE
BEGINNING IN THE TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN--TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN SCHOOL
YEAR, A SCHOOL DISTRICT AND BOARD OF COOPERATIVE EDUCATIONAL SERVICES
SHALL BE ELIGIBLE FOR AN APPORTIONMENT UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THIS
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
[ ] is old law to be omitted.
