This bill amends the existing law regarding the obligations of high school students who serve as members of a school board. Specifically, it repeals the requirement for these student members to attend all school board meetings. The legal language in the bill reflects this change by deleting the word "all" from the section of the law that outlines the attendance requirement for student school board members.
The bill will become effective 60 days after its passage. It was approved on June 14, 2024, which means the new amendment will be in force starting from August 13, 2024. This change provides more flexibility for high school students serving on school boards, acknowledging that they may have other commitments that could conflict with the schedule of every school board meeting.
