Memo Clarifies Impact of SB 619

By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | February 24, 2014

Legislators and other proponents of Senate Bill 619 have been challenging State Superintendent Ever’s contention that the bill would allow the legislature to modify state academic standards.

A legal memorandum, issued late Friday by the DPI, clarifies the impact of Senate Bill 619. The memo confirms that the Legislature would be able to modify a bill establishing Model Academic Standards through any kind of amendment. Additionally, SB 619 impacts all academic standards going forward, not just English language arts and mathematics.

Text of the legal memorandum can be found here.
