Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC EDUCATION; DEFINING THE DUTIES OF THE PUBLIC EDUCATION COMMISSION; ASSIGNING OVERSIGHT FOR CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION TO THE PUBLIC EDUCATION DEPARTMENT.
AI Summary
This bill assigns oversight for career technical education to the Public Education Department. It amends the law to make the Public Education Commission the chartering authority for state-chartered charter schools, removes the requirement for the Commission to advise the Department on policy matters, and gives the Secretary of Education the authority to suspend local school boards, superintendents, or principals that fail to meet requirements without first consulting the Commission. The bill also changes the name of the Instructional Support and Vocational Education Division to the College and Career Readiness Bureau and makes the Department, rather than the Commission, the governing authority for career and technical education programs.
