CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A legislative committee is asking the public to comment on its draft recommendations on how to judge the performance of New Hampshire schools.
The committee has issued a draft report on ways to ensure schools are delivering a constitutionally adequate education.
It recommends schools provide more information and report more frequently on how they are meeting standards. It's also recommending the state form a task force to report to the Legislature next May with a new system for measuring student performance.
The committee holds a hearing on its draft report on Monday.
Last year, the state defined an adequate education, but did not devise an accountability system. The committee was created to examine what measures are place now and recommend improvements.
