Education, Dept. of - As introduced, requires the department to compile an annual report on the number of students who complete the early graduation program to the education committee of the senate and the committee of the house of representatives having jurisdiction over kindergarten through grade 12 education by September 1 of each year. - Amends TCA Title 49.

HB 67 requires Tennessee's Department of Education to annually report the number of students who complete early high school graduation programs to the relevant legislative education committees by September 1 each year. This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 49, specifically adding a new reporting requirement under Section 49-6-8103. The report directly affects the Department of Education, which must compile and submit the data, and the education committees in both chambers of the legislature. It creates no new eligibility rules for students but mandates transparency about early graduation participation rates.
