Bill > H3877

This bill updates the electoral districts for the Laurens County School District 56 Board of Trustees by reapportioning the seven existing single-member districts. The key changes include updating the official district map from version S-59-56-15 to S-59-56-25, which will be used for the 2026 school district elections, and providing detailed demographic information about each district. The bill specifies that one board member must be elected from each of the seven districts by the qualified voters within that district. Importantly, while the district boundaries are being adjusted, the overall exterior boundaries of the school district remain unchanged. The bill includes comprehensive demographic data for each district, breaking down population, racial composition, voting-age population, and other statistical information. The new map will be certified by the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office and provided to the school district and county Board of Voter Registration and Elections. The bill will take effect upon the Governor's approval, ensuring that future school board elections will use the updated district map and representation guidelines.
