bill electronically reproduced 04/16/2026
Summary
The legislation amends the state school aid act to enforce stricter reporting deadlines for pupil enrollment and attendance, and to withhold or forfeit aid from districts that miss those deadlines. It also changes the 1,098‑hour, 180‑day instruction minimum, allowing waivers for districts that add days because of events beyond their control or that run approved alternative programs. The goal is to improve data accuracy and keep instructional standards while giving flexibility in special situations.
