HB 2722-S - DIGEST
(SUBSTITUTED FOR - SEE 2ND SUB)

Finds that of all the challenges confronting the African-American community, perhaps none is more critical to the future than the education of African-American children. The data regarding inequities, disproportionality, and gaps in achievement is alarming.

Requires that the center for the improvement of student learning in the office of the superintendent of public instruction shall convene an advisory committee to craft a strategic plan to address the achievement gap for African-American students.
