School funding is unfairly tied to test scores of transient or homeschooled students who missed significant instruction, penalizing schools for factors beyond their control.

Current state testing grace periods only cover ELL students; no exemption exists for students who move frequently between states or transfer from homeschooling, causing schools to be penalized for scores that don't reflect their teaching effectiveness.
