(1) between February and April of each school year, the school district assesses the performance of every child enrolled in grades 3 to 8 using a nationally norm-referenced standardized achievement examination;

(2) the school board of the school district selects one-time per grant period an examination for each grade level;

(3) school district officials agree to place children's test results in the children's education records;

(4) the school board of the school district establishes a written policy indicating what type of assistance the school district will make available to parents and children when a child's battery score on any single portion of an achievement examination is at or below the 30th percentile;

(5) the school district gives parents the option of selecting the particular form of assistance;

(7) the school board agrees to preserve for five years all aggregate assessment data measuring children's performance on examinations and makes the data available to the public in a timely and accessible manner.

Subd. 3. [APPLICATION PROCESS.] To obtain a grant to establish the option of allowing school districts to meet the requirements of the graduation rule and statewide testing requirements applicable to students in grades 3 to 8, a school district must submit a written application to the commissioner of children, families, and learning in the form and manner the commissioner prescribes. The applicant must indicate the applicant's intent to meet the criteria listed in subdivision 2.

After providing assistance to every eligible child, a grant recipient may use any remaining funds to develop academically related programs or curricula that enhance the educational performance of students in the district.

Subd. 5. [EVALUATION.] The commissioner shall use the aggregate data on children's test scores compiled from grant recipients to evaluate the grant sites and recommend to the education committees of the legislature by February 15, 2001, whether or not a locally controlled, single statewide testing system applicable to children in grades 3 to 8 should be extended statewide."
