Recent School Legislation For Superintendents and Officials
State Superintendent E. T. Fainchin announces recent laws affecting districts and cities. Key changes include: annual meeting timing moved to the second Friday in April for third-class cities, levy methods shifted to district votes on total amount rather than mills, county commissioners levying mills to match district-approved sums, and a maximum district levy of 3.5 mills adjustable by notice and three-fourths district vote. Additional provisions set city-class levies, building and general school levy caps, outward-opening doors, multiple exits, state-approved building plans, monthly fire drills for large schools, optional district ownership of textbooks, and the Barnes high school law provisions. Public notice notes and separate circulars outline new land and normal training provisions.
