Bill > SB303

This bill directs the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to conduct a comprehensive study on the adequacy of public education for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. The department is required to prepare and submit a report to the interim legislative committees focused on education by September 15, 2026. The report can include legislative recommendations and must be submitted in accordance with Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 192.245, which likely pertains to the format and submission of such reports. The bill includes a provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, effectively making this a time-limited directive for the education department to assess and potentially improve the state's K-12 public education system. By mandating this study, the bill seeks to provide lawmakers with detailed insights into the current state of education in Oregon and potential areas for improvement or legislative action.
