(k) Educational accountability.--The following shall apply:
(1) Each student who receives a tuition grant and is
enrolled in a nonpublic school shall annually take the
Pennsylvania System of School Assessment test or any
successor tests implemented for public school students to
comply with Federal law.
(2) The Department of Education shall annually publish
aggregate data on academic performance at the school level
for each student who receives a tuition grant and is enrolled
in a nonpublic school in the same manner as information is
publicly reported for public schools in this Commonwealth,
provided that data shall not be published for a nonpublic
school if the number of students enrolled who receive a
tuition grant is sufficiently low as to make personal
identification of a student's data possible, consistent with
the Department of Education policies and procedures for
public schools.
(3) The school district of residence shall administer
the testing required under this subsection and shall do so at
no cost to the nonpublic school. The Department of Education

actual costs under this subsection.
(4) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSECTION SHALL NOT APPLY TO
ANY STUDENT ENROLLED IN A NONPUBLIC SCHOOL WHO DOES NOT
RECEIVE A TUITION GRANT.
