Diversity Advancements in Accelerated Programs Act

This bill amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to require states and school districts to improve diversity in accelerated learning programs (like gifted or advanced classes). Specifically, it mandates either creating an equity office to address diversity gaps or implementing universal screening (testing all students for eligibility) to ensure fair access. The changes directly affect K-12 schools receiving federal education funds, aiming to reduce disparities in who qualifies for accelerated programs. The law focuses on concrete structural changes to existing program eligibility and oversight processes.
