Summary

The bill requires the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction to analyze whether moving all public schools to a year‑round calendar is practical and what effects it would have. The study must cover academic outcomes, summer learning loss, testing, dual enrollment, tourism, seasonal jobs, extracurriculars, family scheduling, building use and any other relevant issues. Findings and any legislative recommendations are to be reported to the Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee by February 1, 2027, using $50,000 of non‑recurring General Fund money.
