This resolution would direct the state's research arm to create a task force examining how the Kentucky School for the Deaf is governed. The group would study different governance options, including the possibility of giving the school its own independent board of education. No changes to the school's governance would happen automatically — the task force would study the question and report its findings. Who it may affect: students and families connected to the Kentucky School for the Deaf, school staff, and policymakers involved in deaf education.
