Plain-language summary

Beta

This bill would change how many members sit on local school boards in Kentucky, tying board size to the number of students enrolled in each district. The Kentucky Board of Education would be required to determine the correct board size every 10 years, and local boards would need to redraw their electoral divisions and report those changes to state agencies. New board seats created through this process would be filled as vacancies. Who it may affect: local school board members, voters in Kentucky school districts, and school district administrators.
