Bill Summary

By Mr. Hill of Ipswich, a petition of Bradford Hill that costs associated with special education follow students upon the change of school districts in mid year. Education.

AI Summary

This bill aims to reform special education funding by requiring that the costs associated with a student's special education follow the student if they change school districts mid-year. Specifically, the bill would amend the existing law to state that the cost appropriated by one district shall fund all of the student's needs through the end of the current fiscal year, even if the student changes school districts. At the start of the new fiscal year, the new district would then incur all costs going forward.
