2.19 	[332B.09] FEES; WITHDRAWAL OF CREDITORS; NOTIFICATION TO 
2.20 	DEBTOR OF SETTLEMENT OFFER.
2.21 		Subdivision 1.Choice of fee structure. A debt settlement services provider may 
2.22 	calculate fees on a percentage of debt basis or on a percentage of savings basis. The fee 
2.23 	structure shall be clearly disclosed and explained in the debt settlement services agreement.
2.24 		Subd. 2.Fees as a percentage of debt. (a) The total amount of the fees claimed, 
2.25 	demanded, charged, collected, or received under this subdivision shall be calculated as 
2.26 	15 percent of the aggregate debt. A debt settlement services provider that calculates 
2.27 	fees as a percentage of debt may:
2.28 	(1) charge an origination fee, which may be designated by the debt settlement 
2.29 	services provider as nonrefundable, of:
2.30 	(i) $200 on aggregate debt of less than $20,000; or
2.31 	(ii) $400 on aggregate debt of $20,000 or more;

2.33 	(i) no greater than $50 per month on aggregate debt of less than $40,000; and 
2.34 	(ii) no greater than $60 per month on aggregate debt of $40,000 or more; and
3.1 	(3) charge a settlement fee for the remainder of the allowable fees, which may be 
3.2 	demanded and collected no earlier than upon delivery to the debt settlement services 
3.3 	provider by a creditor of a bona fide written settlement offer consistent with the terms of 
3.4 	the debt settlement services agreement. A settlement fee may be assessed for each debt 
3.5 	settled, but the sum total of the origination fee, the monthly fee, and the settlement fee 
3.6 	may not exceed 15 percent of the aggregate debt.
3.7 	(b) When a settlement offer is obtained by a debt settlement services provider from a 
3.8 	creditor, the collection of any monthly fees shall cease beginning the month following the 
3.9 	month in which the settlement offer was obtained by the debt settlement services provider.
3.10 	(c) In no event may more than 40 percent of the total amount of fees allowable be 
3.11 	claimed, demanded, charged, collected, or received by a debt settlement services provider 
3.12 	any earlier than upon delivery to the debt settlement services provider by a creditor of 
3.13 	a bona fide written settlement offer consistent with the terms of the debt settlement 
3.14 	services agreement.
3.15 		Subd. 3.Fees as a percentage of savings. (a) The total amount of the fees claimed, 
3.16 	demanded, charged, collected, or received under this subdivision shall be calculated as 30 
3.17 	percent of the savings actually negotiated by the debt settlement services provider. The 
3.18 	savings shall be calculated as the difference between the aggregate debt that is stated 
3.19 	in the debt settlement services agreement at the time of its execution and total amount 
3.20 	that the debtor actually pays to settle all the debts stated in the debt settlement services 
3.21 	agreement, provided that only savings resulting from concessions actually negotiated by 
3.22 	the debt settlement services provider may be counted. A debt settlement services provider 
3.23 	that calculates fees as a percentage of debt savings may:
3.24 	(1) charge an origination fee, which may be designated by the debt settlement 
3.25 	services provider as nonrefundable, of:
3.26 	(i) $300 on aggregate debt of less than $20,000; or
3.27 	(ii) $500 on aggregate debt of $20,000 or more;
3.28 	(2) charge a monthly fee of:
3.29 	(i) no greater than $65 on aggregate debt of less than $40,000; and
3.30 	(ii) no greater than $75 on aggregate debt of $40,000 or more; and
3.31 	(3) charge a settlement fee for the remainder of the allowable fees, which may be 
3.32 	demanded and collected no earlier than upon delivery to the debt settlement services 
3.33 	provider by a creditor of a bona fide, final written settlement offer consistent with the 
3.34 	terms of the debt settlement services agreement. A settlement fee may be assessed for each 
3.35 	debt settled, but the sum total of the origination fee, the monthly fee, and the settlement 
3.36 	fee may not exceed 30 percent of the savings, as calculated under paragraph (a).
4.1 	(b) The collection of monthly fees shall cease under this subdivision when the 
4.2 	total of monthly fees and the origination fee equals 50 percent of the total fees allowable 
4.3 	under this subdivision. For the purposes of this subdivision, 50 percent of the total fees 
4.4 	allowable shall assume a settlement of 50 cents on the dollar.
4.5 	(c) In no event may more than 50 percent of the total amount of fees allowable be 
4.6 	claimed, demanded, charged, collected, or received by a debt settlement services provider 
4.7 	any earlier than upon delivery to the debt settlement services provider by a creditor of a 
4.8 	bona fide, final written settlement offer consistent with the terms of the debt settlement 
4.9 	services agreement.

4.11 	may be claimed, demanded, charged, collected, or received other than the fees allowed 
4.12 	under this section. Any fees collected in excess of those allowed under this section must 
4.13 	be immediately returned to the debtor.
4.14 		Subd. 5.Withdrawal of creditor. Whenever a creditor withdraws from a debt 
4.15 	settlement services plan, the debt settlement services provider must promptly notify the 
4.16 	debtor of the withdrawal, identify the creditor, and inform the debtor of the right to modify 
4.17 	the debt settlement services agreement, unless at least 50 percent of the listed creditors 
4.18 	withdraw, in which case the debt settlement services provider must notify the debtor of the 
4.19 	debtor's right to cancel. In no case may this notice be provided more than 15 days after the 
4.20 	debt settlement services provider learns of the creditor's decision to withdraw from a plan.
4.21 		Subd. 6.Timely notification of settlement offer. A debt settlement services 
4.22 	provider must make all reasonable efforts to notify the debtor within 24 hours of a 
4.23 	settlement offer made by a creditor.

5.7 		Subdivision 1.Statewide testing.  (a) The commissioner, with advice from experts 
5.8 	with appropriate technical qualifications and experience and stakeholders, consistent with 
5.9 	subdivision 1a, shall include in the comprehensive assessment system, for each grade 
5.10 	level to be tested, state-constructed tests developed from and aligned with the state's 
5.11 	required academic standards under section 120B.021, include multiple choice questions, 
5.12 	and be administered annually to all students in grades 3 through 8. State-developed high 
5.13 	school tests aligned with the state's required academic standards under section 120B.021
5.14 	and administered to all high school students in a subject other than writing must include 
5.15 	multiple choice questions. The commissioner shall establish one or more months during

5.29 	(2) science; grades 5 and 8 and at the high school level beginning in the 2011-2012 
5.30 	school year; and
5.31 	(3) language arts and reading; grades 3 through 8 and high school level beginning in 
5.32 	the 2012-2013 school year.
5.33 	(c) For students enrolled in grade 8 in the 2005-2006 school year and later, only the 
5.34 	following options shall fulfill students' state graduation test requirements:

6.15 	determined through a standard setting process on the state-identified alternate assessment 
6.16 	or assessments in grade 10 for reading and grade 11 for mathematics for students with 
6.17 	an individual education plan; or
6.18 	(v) achieving an individual passing score on the state-identified alternate assessment 
6.19 	or assessments as determined by appropriate state guidelines for students with an 
6.20 	individual education plan; and
6.21 	(2) for writing:
6.22 	(i) achieving a passing score on the graduation-required assessment for diploma;
6.23 	(ii) achieving a passing score as determined through a standard setting process on

6.33 	year to the 2009-2010 school year who do not pass the mathematics graduation-required 
6.34 	assessment for diploma under paragraph (b) (c) are eligible to receive a high school 
6.35 	diploma with a passing state notation if they:
7.1 	(1) complete with a passing score or grade all state and local coursework and credits 
7.2 	required for graduation by the school board granting the students their diploma;
7.3 	(2) participate in district-prescribed academic remediation in mathematics; and
7.4 	(3) fully participate in at least two retests of the mathematics GRAD test or until 
7.5 	they pass the mathematics GRAD test, whichever comes first. A school, district, or 
7.6 	charter school must place a student's highest assessment score for each of the following 
7.7 	assessments on the student's high school transcript: the mathematics Minnesota 
7.8 	Comprehensive Assessment, reading Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment, and writing 
7.9 	Graduation-Required Assessment for Diploma, and when applicable, the mathematics 
7.10 	Graduation-Required Assessment for Diploma and reading Graduation-Required 
7.11 	Assessment for Diploma.
7.12 	In addition, the school board granting the students their diplomas may formally 
7.13 	decide to include a notation of high achievement on the high school diplomas of those 
7.14 	graduating seniors who, according to established school board criteria, demonstrate 
7.15 	exemplary academic achievement during high school.
7.16 	(e) The 3rd through 8th grade and high school test results shall be available to 
7.17 	districts for diagnostic purposes affecting student learning and district instruction and 
7.18 	curriculum, and for establishing educational accountability. The commissioner must 
7.19 	disseminate to the public the high school test results upon receiving those results.
7.20 	(f) The 3rd through 8th grade and high school tests must be aligned with state 
7.21 	academic standards. The commissioner shall determine the testing process and the order 
7.22 	of administration. The statewide results shall be aggregated at the site and district level, 
7.23 	consistent with subdivision 1a.
7.24 	(g) In addition to the testing and reporting requirements under this section, the 
7.25 	commissioner shall include the following components in the statewide public reporting 
7.26 	system:
7.27 	(1) uniform statewide testing of all students in grades 3 through 8 and at the high 
7.28 	school level that provides appropriate, technically sound accommodations or alternate 
7.29 	assessments;
7.30 	(2) educational indicators that can be aggregated and compared across school 
7.31 	districts and across time on a statewide basis, including average daily attendance, high 
7.32 	school graduation rates, and high school drop-out rates by age and grade level;
7.33 	(3) state results on the American College Test; and
7.34 	(4) state results from participation in the National Assessment of Educational 
7.35 	Progress so that the state can benchmark its performance against the nation and other 
8.1 	states, and, where possible, against other countries, and contribute to the national effort 
8.2 	to monitor achievement.
8.3 		Subd. 1a.Statewide and local assessments; results. (a) For purposes 
8.4 	of conforming with existing federal educational accountability requirements, the 
8.5 	commissioner must develop reading and mathematics assessments for grades 3 through 8, 
8.6 	state-developed high school reading and mathematics tests aligned with state academic 
8.7 	standards, and science assessments under clause (2) that districts and sites must use to 
8.8 	monitor student growth toward achieving those standards. The commissioner must 
8.9 	not develop statewide assessments for academic standards in social studies, health and 
8.10 	physical education, and the arts. The commissioner must require:
8.11 	(1) annual reading and mathematics assessments in grades 3 through 8, and high 
8.12 	school reading and mathematics tests; and
8.13 	(2) annual science assessments in one grade in the grades 3 through 5 span, the 
8.14 	grades 6 through 8 span, and a life sciences assessment in the grades 9 through 12 span, 
8.15 	and the commissioner must not require students to achieve a passing score on high school 
8.16 	science assessments as a condition of receiving a high school diploma.
8.17 	(b) The commissioner must ensure that all statewide tests administered to elementary 
8.18 	and secondary students measure students' academic knowledge and skills and not students' 
8.19 	values, attitudes, and beliefs.
8.20 	(c) Reporting of assessment results must:
8.21 	(1) provide timely, useful, and understandable information on the performance of 
8.22 	individual students, schools, school districts, and the state;
8.23 	(2) include a value-added growth indicator of student achievement under section 
8.24 	120B.35, subdivision 3, paragraph (b); and
8.25 	(3)(i) for students enrolled in grade 8 before the 2005-2006 school year, determine 
8.26 	whether students have met the state's basic skills requirements; and
8.27 	(ii) for students enrolled in grade 8 in the 2005-2006 school year and later, determine 
8.28 	whether students have met the state's academic standards.
8.29 	(d) Consistent with applicable federal law and subdivision 1, paragraph (d), clause 
8.30 	(1), the commissioner must include appropriate, technically sound accommodations or 
8.31 	alternative assessments for the very few students with disabilities for whom statewide 
8.32 	assessments are inappropriate and for students with limited English proficiency.
8.33 	(e) A school, school district, and charter school must administer statewide 
8.34 	assessments under this section, as the assessments become available, to evaluate student 
8.35 	proficiency in the context of the state's grade level academic standards. If a state 
8.36 	assessment is not available, a school, school district, and charter school must determine 
9.1 	locally if a student has met the required academic standards. A school, school district, 
9.2 	or charter school may use a student's performance on a statewide assessment as one of 
9.3 	multiple criteria to determine grade promotion or retention. A school, school district, or 
9.4 	charter school may use a high school student's performance on a statewide assessment 
9.5 	as a percentage of the student's final grade in a course, or place a student's assessment 
9.6 	score on the student's transcript.
9.7 		Subd. 2.Department of Education assistance. The Department of Education 
9.8 	shall contract for professional and technical services according to competitive bidding 
9.9 	procedures under chapter 16C for purposes of this section.
9.10 		Subd. 3.Reporting. The commissioner shall report test data publicly and to 
9.11 	stakeholders, including the performance achievement levels developed from students' 
9.12 	unweighted test scores in each tested subject and a listing of demographic factors that 
9.13 	strongly correlate with student performance. The commissioner shall also report data that 
9.14 	compares performance results among school sites, school districts, Minnesota and other 
9.15 	states, and Minnesota and other nations. The commissioner shall disseminate to schools 
9.16 	and school districts a more comprehensive report containing testing information that 
9.17 	meets local needs for evaluating instruction and curriculum.
9.18 		Subd. 4.Access to tests. The commissioner must adopt and publish a policy 
9.19 	to provide public and parental access for review of basic skills tests, Minnesota 
9.20 	Comprehensive Assessments, or any other such statewide test and assessment. Upon 
9.21 	receiving a written request, the commissioner must make available to parents or guardians 
9.22 	a copy of their student's actual responses to the test questions for their review.

9.23 	Sec. 7. [CORR09-05B] Minnesota Statutes 2008, section 125B.26, as amended by 
9.24 	Laws 2009, chapter 96, article 4, section 11, is amended to read:
