HB0166S01 - Reductions to Education Mandates

State Impact:
Enactment of this bill eliminates the required Criterion-Referenced Tests in the second grade, saving the state approximately $200,000 in Uniform School Funds. Further, provisions in this bill delays the implementation of the Utah Basic Skills Competency Test (UBSCT) for two school years. Bill provisions require that the state fund savings generated from the UBSCT delay support a pilot program established in the bill.
