Senate Bill 1820 amends the Education Code to allow consideration of the effectiveness of a district's career and technology programs as an additional performance measure in determining that district's rating under the state's public school accountability system. The bill requires such consideration to be based on data collected for accountability purposes through the Public Education Information Management System and to include the results of student performance on the required statewide standardized examinations.
