This bill amends existing laws regarding the training and education requirements for members of school district boards of education in Oklahoma. Key changes include the removal of outdated language and the elimination of mandatory written agreements for certain members to complete education requirements. The bill allows board members to complete training within six months of their election or appointment, reduces the required hours of instruction from twelve to three, and removes specific topics that were previously mandated for training. Additionally, it repeals the section concerning continuing education requirements for board members and removes penalties for failing to complete the required instruction.

The bill also shifts the responsibility for maintaining attendance records from the State Board of Education to individual school districts, which are now required to post these records on their websites. It allows school districts to charge for attendance at training sessions and clarifies that board members must represent the interests of their constituents. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
