Modifies conditions for use of virtual or remote instruction to meet 180-day school year requirement.
Introduced First Reading Assembly Referred to AED
Summary
The bill lets public and approved private schools use virtual or remote instruction to satisfy the 180‑day attendance rule when schools are closed for three or more days because of a declared emergency or health directive. Districts must get the program approved by the state commissioner, and each virtual day counts as a full school day for graduation, credit and other requirements. It also protects special‑education services and ensures school employees retain their contract benefits during such closures.
