Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend 118.51 (3m) (b) 4. of the statutes; relating to: alternative open enrollment application proce- dures for residency change based on military orders.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the existing "open enrollment" process, which allows students to attend a public school outside their resident district, by providing alternative application procedures specifically for families whose residency changes due to military orders. Previously, such applications had to be received by the non-resident school board within 30 days of the military orders being issued; this bill extends that deadline to 90 days. The bill also clarifies that "military orders" include directives from any branch of the U.S. armed forces, reserve components, the state defense force, or the national guard of any state, ensuring a broader scope of eligible military families.
