SB 835: Pupil instruction: Cambridge International Education programs.
What SB 835 does, verified December 7, 2025
This bill aims to amend the education code to support pupil instruction. It would allow school districts to use the Cambridge International Level Examinations to measure pupil academic growth for principal evaluations. This would provide an additional assessment option for schools. The bill would also expand the definition of an educational counseling program to include encouraging participation in Cambridge International programs, which are available for grades 6 to 12.
