(1) that meets the participation requirements for all students in all subject areas for the annual measurement of achievement under Section 1111, Every Student Succeeds Act (20 U.S.C. § 6311(c)(4)(E)); and
(2) to which the most recent performance rating assigned, other than a “Not Rated” rating, is a D, F, or performance that needs improvement.
(b) Notwithstanding any other law, the commissioner shall adopt rules to develop and implement alternative methods and standards for evaluating the performance for the 2020-2021 school year of a campus to which this section applies.

(e) If the commissioner determines that the campus would not be assigned an acceptable performance rating, the commissioner shall instead assign the campus a rating of “Not Rated.”
(f) This section does not apply to an intervention ordered on the basis of consecutive school years of unacceptable performance ratings accrued before the effective date of this section.
