State Board of Education
Academic Standards and Assessment
Regulation No. 6-295 (IRRC #2499)

   On September 26, 2005, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this proposed regulation from the State Board of Education (Board). This rulemaking amends 22 Pa. Code Chapter 4. The proposed regulation was published in the November 5, 2005 Pennsylvania Bulletin with a 30-day public comment period. The final-form regulation was submitted to the Commission on December 4, 2007.

   This regulation is a general update of existing Chapter 4 Academic Standards and Assessment. The amendments address: general provisions; academic standards and planning; curriculum and instruction; vocational-technical education; assessment; school profiles; and enforcement and implementation.

   We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Board (24 P. S. §§ 26-2603-B(d)(4)(iv)) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

By Order of the Commission:

   This regulation is approved.

ARTHUR COCCODRILLI,   
Chairperson
