Statute
Educational statute refers to the laws that have been enacted by a legislative body and that apply to schools. These laws can cover a wide range of topics, such as school attendance, curriculum, teacher education and licensure, student discipline, and school funding.
Statutes play an important role in schools by ensuring that all students have access to a quality education and that their rights are protected. For example, statutes require states to provide a free and appropriate public education to all students, regardless of their race, ethnicity, disability, or socioeconomic status.
Statutes require states to develop and implement standards for academic achievement and to assess students' progress against those standards. Statutes also require states to disclose information about school performance to the public.
