Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
This bill establishes a new National Center for Advanced Development in Education within the Institute for Education Sciences to research and develop innovations in teaching and learning. The center will focus on breakthrough technologies, new teaching methods, assessment tools, and solutions to address educational disparities, with particular attention to learning recovery from COVID-19, special education, and English learners. The center will be led by a Commissioner for Advanced Education Development and guided by an advisory panel of parents, educators, researchers, and technology experts. The bill authorizes funding through fiscal year 2029 but does not specify a dollar amount, leaving the specific budget to appropriations committees. The legislation also expands state longitudinal data systems to better track student progress from early childhood through the workforce while protecting privacy, and requires a federal report on implementation by 2025 and 2028.
