A
controversial plan to start assigning public schools A-through-F grades cleared
both chambers of the Texas Legislature on Sunday.
House Bill 2804 now
heads to the desk of Republican Gov. Greg Abbott.
Approved
as part of a bill making larger changes to the state's accountability system —
including reducing the role student assessments play in measuring public school
performance — the legislation would replace the state's current system of
rating schools as "met standard" or "needs improvement."
The A-through-F grades would start in the 2016 school year.
