DPA/SE
Summary
The bill lets adjacent common school districts and high school districts combine into a single unified district without holding an election, specifying how the merger is approved, how the new board is formed, and how budgets are prepared. It protects teachers' base pay during the first year, carries over existing tax overrides, and lets the new district request new overrides. The changes impact school boards, teachers, students, and property owners in any districts that choose to unify.
