Plain-English Summary
States would be required to use the same racial and ethnic categories on their school report cards that the U.S. Census Bureau uses in the decennial census, rather than potentially using different groupings. This would create consistency in how student demographics are reported and tracked across schools and districts nationwide. The change would affect state education departments, school districts, and anyone reviewing school performance data based on student demographics.
