This bill aims to repeal the Public School Educational Cooperative Act of 1981 and amend the Education Service Cooperative Act of 1985. The repeal involves the removal of several sections that defined educational cooperatives, their powers, and the governance structure, including the board of directors and their responsibilities. Specifically, the bill deletes the entire subchapter related to the Public School Educational Cooperative Act, which includes definitions, powers, and operational guidelines for educational cooperatives.

In addition to the repeal, the bill introduces new provisions regarding the governance of education service cooperatives. It specifies that each cooperative will be governed by a board of directors, with representatives appointed through a voted resolution by each member school district's board. The bill also establishes requirements for public meetings, the appointment process, and the responsibilities of the board, including the compilation of data on student performance and the provision of that data to member districts. The act is set to take effect on January 1, 2024.
