The bill H. 3877 aims to amend Act 779 of 1988 concerning the Laurens County School District 56 by reapportioning the seven single-member districts from which members of the Board of Trustees are elected. The bill specifies that beginning with the 2026 school district elections, the election districts will be defined according to a new official map designated as S-59-56-15 S-59-56-25, which will be prepared and filed with the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office. The map will include demographic information relevant to the newly defined election districts and will only be subject to change through an act of the General Assembly or a court ruling.
Additionally, the bill clarifies that the changes made to the single-member election districts will not affect the overall boundaries of Laurens County School District 56. The act will take effect upon receiving approval from the Governor.
