New High School District Bill Promises Reform
A proposed high school district bill advances through the Education Committee aiming to form community districts by voter approval. An ex officio board will manage boundaries with 30 days notice for changes and create non high school districts funded by a tax up to 1 percent to cover tuition for pupils attending high school districts. The measure seeks broad support from districts dissatisfied with current law and follows a Supreme Court ruling that legalized some 197 districts.
