Vision 2030: An Education Blueprint for Two Thousand Thirty; create.

HB 312 requires Mississippi's State Board of Education to adopt a rule creating "Vision 2030," a comprehensive education plan for public schools. The plan must include specific goals like raising student achievement above national averages (using tests such as NAEP and SAT), preparing all students for college or careers, and ensuring equitable opportunities. It also mandates a new accountability system for schools, a rigorous 21st-century curriculum, and a balanced assessment process using national benchmarks to track progress toward these goals. This rule will directly guide Mississippi's public education system, affecting all K-12 schools and their accountability measures.
