Summary

The legislation lets K‑12 students who live in one school district enroll in a public school in another district at no cost, provided the receiving district has adopted an open‑enrollment policy. It also sets rules for how districts must publish capacity, prioritize resident students and siblings, and handle applications. Transportation is not required from either district, and the bill clarifies tuition rules for graduates and veterans.
