SB 733 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Education - As introduced, requires the department of education to submit an early grades reading report to legislative committees with jurisdiction over subject matter pertaining to education by December 31 of each year. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 733 requires Tennessee's Department of Education to submit an annual report on early grades reading performance to the Senate Education Committee and relevant House education committees by December 31 each year. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 49, specifically updating Section 49-1-907 to establish this reporting requirement. It directly affects the Department of Education (which must prepare the report) and legislative committees (which will receive and review the report). This is a procedural change focused on transparency, not altering teaching methods, funding, or student requirements.
