The bill establishes the Early Childhood Education Governance and Outcomes Task Force in Ohio, tasked with evaluating the state's regulatory structures governing early childhood education. The Task Force will focus on several key areas, including kindergarten readiness, educational continuity between early childhood programs and K-12 education, accountability for educational outcomes, and effective use of resources. It will consist of various members, including legislators, state agency directors, and experts in early childhood education, child development, and education data. The Task Force is required to reflect geographic diversity and include representatives from urban, suburban, and rural communities.

The Task Force is mandated to study and make recommendations on governance, educational alignment, outcomes, and fiscal policies related to early childhood education programs. It will not duplicate the responsibilities of existing councils but will focus on specific areas such as educational governance and accountability. A final report detailing findings and recommendations must be submitted by December 1, 2027, after which the Task Force will cease to exist. The General Assembly emphasizes the importance of early childhood education in preparing children for academic success and aims for the Task Force to assess the effectiveness of Ohio's early childhood investments and governance structures.
