Section text
Sec. 13. (a) The proficiency of students under a statewide summative assessment must be reported to the state board not later than: (1) for the 2025-2026 school year, September 1, 2026; and (2) for each school year beginning after June 30, 2026, July 1 of the year in which the statewide summative assessment is administered. (b) Reports of student scores on the statewide summative assessment must be: (1) returned to the school corporation, charter school, state accredited nonpublic school, or eligible school (as defined in IC 20-51-1-4.7) that administered the test; and (2) accompanied by a guide for interpreting scores. (c) Subject to approval by the state board, reports of student results on computer scored items under a statewide summative assessment may be returned to schools regardless of whether the hand scored items are returned. (d) After reports of final student scores on the statewide summative assessment are returned to a school corporation, charter school, state accredited nonpublic school, or eligible school (as defined in IC 20-51-1-4.7), the school corporation or school shall promptly do the following: (1) Give each student and the student's parent the student's statewide summative assessment test scores, including the summary described in section 14.5 of this chapter. (2) Make available for inspection to each student and the student's parent the following: (A) A copy of the student's scored responses. (B) A copy of the anchor papers and scoring rubrics used to score the student's responses. A student's parent or the student's principal may request a rescoring of a student's responses to a statewide summative assessment, including a student's essay. A student's final score on a rescored statewide summative assessment must reflect the student's actual score on the rescored statewide summative assessment regardless of whether the student's score decreased or improved on the rescored assessment. (e) The department shall develop criteria to provide a student's parent the opportunity to inspect questions in a manner that will not compromise the validity or integrity of a statewide summative assessment. (f) A student's statewide summative assessment scores may not be disclosed to the public.
