The proposed bill seeks to amend Article VIII, Section 13(D)(1) of the Louisiana Constitution to include the St. George community school system in East Baton Rouge Parish alongside the Central and Zachary community school systems. This amendment would grant the St. George community school system the same authority as parishes regarding the operation of a school system, which includes the ability to raise local revenues and secure funding for elementary and secondary education. The amendment emphasizes that no state dollars shall be used in a manner that discriminates against providing equal educational opportunities for all students.

The bill outlines that the proposed amendment will be submitted to Louisiana voters for approval during a statewide election scheduled for April 18, 2026, with a contingency for a later date of November 3, 2026, if necessary. The official ballot will present a proposition asking voters whether they support granting the St. George community school system the same authority as parishes concerning educational funding and resources.
