What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, school is required to be held for at least 180 days during the

school term (the time beginning with the first school day and ending with the last

school day that the schools are in operation for the attendance of pupils in a school

year). In addition, each school board must schedule at least 437 hours of direct pupil

instruction in kindergarten, at least 1,050 hours of direct pupil instruction in grades

1 to 6, and at least 1,137 hours of direct pupil instruction in grades 7 to 12. This bill

retains the requirement that school be held for these minimum required hours of

instruction but eliminates the requirement that school be held for at least 180 days.
