Although the AOE places the EQS and Act 77 under the same roof (see image below), I see these two government actions being potential contradictions of each other. If not implemented cohesively and effectively, I see the EQS acting as the guide to implement proficiencies and standards, and Act 77 acting as an after-thought or extra thing that schools simply have to "comply" with but not actually use as a positive tool for student growth and achievement.
