HB 2303 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

School Vouchers - As introduced, changes the reporting date, from June 30 to June 15, by which each private school must provide the results of the tests that are required to be administered to recipients of an education freedom scholarship to the office of research and education accountability in the office of the comptroller of the treasury. - Amends TCA Title 49.

HB 2303 changes the annual deadline for private schools participating in Tennessee's education freedom scholarship program to report student test results. Specifically, it moves the reporting date from June 30 to June 15 each year to the Office of Research and Education Accountability within the comptroller's office. This bill directly affects private schools receiving education freedom scholarship funds, requiring them to submit test results for scholarship recipients earlier each year. The change is purely procedural, altering a reporting deadline without modifying scholarship eligibility or funding.
