FL S1472

Updates multiple Florida education statutes to reference the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA) instead of the outdated No Child Left Behind Act of 2001.

Requires the K-20 education performance accountability system to comply with ESSA requirements (20 U.S.C. ss. 6301 et seq.) rather than No Child Left Behind.

Removes references to the ESEA flexibility waiver that was previously approved for Florida and no longer applies.

Changes federal Impact Aid Program eligibility reference from section 8003 of Title VIII to section 7003 of Title VII of ESEA, reflecting the statute's reorganization under ESSA.

Updates student subgroup definitions throughout the statute to reference 20 U.S.C. s. 6311(c)(2) under ESSA instead of previous NCLB citations.
