Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION 1. The regulations of the Board of Education, relating to intervention where quality of education in a local school district is impaired, designated as Regulation Document Number 1473, and submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the 1976 Code, are approved.

----XXX----

SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

This regulation establishes procedures, as required by the Education Improvement Act of 1984, to evaluate the quality of education in the school districts of the state. This regulation provides that performance standards will be adopted and applied annually by the State Board of Education in the following areas: (1) test results; (2) accreditation deficiencies; (3) dropout rates; (4) student attendance rates; and, (5) faculty attendance. It is recommended that Regulation 43-301 be amended through permanent regulation in order to accommodate changes which have taken place in the state's testing programs and to designate districts which fail to meet outcome criteria as "highest priority for technical assistance."
