Summary

The bill sets up a new School System Performance and Accountability Board and an independent Office of School System Performance and Accountability (OSPA) to monitor county school systems. It requires the West Virginia Department of Education to run a statewide early‑warning system and to place districts that fall short on a public watch list with required corrective plans. The aim is to catch financial or governance problems early, reduce the need for state takeovers, and increase transparency.
