Maryland School for the Deaf - Membership of Board of Trustees - Alterations

Summary

The bill reduces the Board of Trustees from 19 to 13 members and mandates that at least seven of those members are deaf. It changes how trustees are appointed—by the governor with Senate consent—and adds requirements for residency, public status, interest in deaf education, and geographic representation. The change is intended to give the deaf community a stronger voice in governing the school.
