[quote=Anonymous]Any thoughts on this? If I understand correctly, it would require any private school in Virginia with at least one student taking a federal voucher for private school (the Trump plan bbb thing) to have to administer the sol tests to all students in the school, and the school would have to reimburse VA. It also creates some new data reporting requirements for privates, and requires them to not turn away anyone who needs an IEP if they are otherwise qualified.

My guess is that this is to discourage VA privates from using the federal vouchers (whenever they come around…bbb passed last yr, but still have yet to hear of any specifics), but dunno if privates could refuse to accept the vouchers since it’s up to the individual family if they want to use it.

I thought that each state had to agree to opt into the federal voucher plan. If this is the case, then shouldn’t VA just refuse to opt in?

Anyway, curious to hear other ppl’s thoughts.
