School Class Size Requirements

Summary

The bill caps the number of students in most public school classes at 25, but allows larger groups for certain secondary‑grade activities like choir, band, orchestra, or physical education, and also when a paraeducator or teaching aide is present or the class is an asynchronous online course. School districts may temporarily exceed the limit if unexpected enrollment changes occur, provided they adopt a written plan to return to compliance and notify parents within ten school days. The State Board of Education will create rules for documenting and reporting class sizes and may designate additional large‑group classes through rulemaking.
