This is a trailer bill to House Bill 521 that makes three changes: 1) it ensures the executive officer of the state board is Senate confirmed; 2) it delays the implementation of the minimum days requirement for schools to 2025 to ensure legislative oversight while providing the state board flexibility to phase in hours or days requirements; and 3) it ensures any misused dollars by a local school district are recaptured to the schools facilities fund and distributed to rural schools.
