Summary
The bill lets Maryland county education boards create policies that allow eligible K‑12 students to enroll, at no cost, in public schools outside their home county. It requires those students to be counted in enrollment figures and directs the sending county to transfer per‑student funding to the receiving county, with the state covering any shortfall. The measure aims to expand school choice while ensuring fiscal responsibility.
