Charter Schools/Virtual Schools • Charter Schools exist in 42 states and the district of Columbia. • 7 States are without charter schools • Virtual Schools are beginning to evolve. • The early, the better chance that students will be successful.
ESEA reauthorization • ESEA is under current version (No Child Left Behind). Which sets the frameworks for accountability under states measure schools with ramifications for state assessments and other measurements. • Waivers are being used in many states from specific NCLB requirements that are granted by the U.S. • The Obama Administration granted many of these states the waivers.
Data Privacy • 182 bills have been introduced in 46 states, and 28 laws have been passed in 15 states. • This does not negatively impact digital learning. • Some just have provisions that restrict ways that data can be shared in which some may be difficult in online learning.
