The bill amends the Public School Capital Outlay Act to include the New Mexico Military Institute as one of the "constitutional special schools." This addition recognizes the institute alongside the New Mexico School for the Blind and Visually Impaired and the New Mexico School for the Deaf, thereby expanding the definition of "constitutional special schools" within the existing legal framework.

Additionally, the bill updates the definitions related to public school facilities, including terms such as "school district" to encompass state-chartered charter schools and the newly included constitutional special schools. This legislative change aims to enhance the support and resources available for these specialized educational institutions, ensuring they are recognized within the state's capital outlay funding mechanisms.
