The bill amends R.S. 17:1964(A)(8) concerning the board of directors for the Jimmy D. Long School for Math, Science, and the Arts. The primary change involves the appointment process for two members of the Senate who serve on the board. The previous language that specified the appointment by the chairman of the Senate Committee on Education has been deleted, and the new language clarifies that these members shall be appointed by the chairman of the Senate Committee on Education.

This legislative change aims to streamline the appointment process while maintaining the involvement of the Senate Committee on Education in selecting board members. The bill will take effect upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, after the designated period for bills to become law without signature, as outlined in the Louisiana Constitution.
