Provides that a nationally recognized and locally selected assessment adopted by another state that meets certain requirements under the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 and that demonstrates, through a third-party study, alignment to the Illinois Learning Standards is deemed to meet the State Board's technical criteria and shall be approved by the State Board. Requires the State Board to reimburse a school district for costs associated with the administration of the nationally recognized and locally selected assessment option of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act.
