Bill > HB325

This bill makes several changes to school board governance in New Mexico. It expands the School District Campaign Reporting Act to cover all school board elections, not just those in districts with over 12,000 students. The bill also allows the New Mexico Public Education Department to suspend individual school board members, in addition to the entire school board, for failing to meet requirements. Additionally, the bill requires mandatory training for school board members on topics like public school finance, student achievement, and legal concepts. Finally, the bill mandates that local school board and charter school governing body meetings be livestreamed and archived online for public access.
