This document, known as the Educational Reform Law of Puerto Rico, establishes new public policy for the educational system, centering on the student as the primary focus. Key reforms include decentralizing services through Regional Education Offices, establishing Alliance Public Schools, and implementing a student-centric budget model based on average cost per student. The law also aims to develop new philosophical, sociological, psychological, and neuroscientific frameworks for the teaching system, enhance evaluation and accountability, promote digital transparency, and foster broad community and third-sector involvement. The overarching goal is to prepare students with comprehensive skills, including STEM/STEAM, for a global economy, promoting integrated development and equitable access to quality education.
This Consolidated State Plan for the Puerto Rico Department of Education, submitted under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), aims to simplify application requirements and reduce administrative burden. It outlines the state's comprehensive strategy to improve educational outcomes for all students by addressing persistent achievement gaps. Key long-term goals are established for academic achievement, graduation rates, and Spanish Language Proficiency, targeting significant improvements by 2022. The plan details a statewide accountability system based on indicators such as academic performance, student growth (for non-high schools), graduation rates, and school quality/student success, emphasizing meaningful stakeholder engagement and various programmatic interventions like 'Gaming for Learning,' 'Online Learning,' 'Star Links curriculum,' 'Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support (PBIS),' 'Team teaching,' 'Project C.A.S.A.,' and STEM programs to foster student success.
This document, known as Law No. 75, creates the Puerto Rico Innovation and Technology Service (PRITS) to establish and promote public policy for innovation and information technology within the Government of Puerto Rico.

Key objectives include developing a unified digital platform, improving the main government portal (Upgrade pr.gov), establishing IT policies and standards, and ensuring technological accessibility for citizens with disabilities, all with the goal of driving economic development and improving citizen trust.
