AN ACT relating to school districts.

Summary

The bill raises the minimum number of students an independent district must have—300 if it serves only K‑8 and 450 if it includes high school grades. Districts that fall below these numbers must either prove they can operate efficiently or merge with a neighboring county district, with the process involving board decisions, possible voter approval, and state board intervention if needed. It also defines which cities count as “designated cities” for the purpose of the rule.
