Bill Summary

An Act relating to schools; amending 70 O.S. 2021, Section 1-109, as last amended by Section 1, Chapter 480, O.S.L. 2025 (70 O.S. Supp. 2025, Section 1-109), which relates to the length of the school year; increasing minimum days of instruction for schools with a school-hours policy beginning in certain school year; requiring parent-teacher conferences to have an in-person option; updating reference; and providing an effective date contingent upon certain condition.

AI Summary

This bill modifies existing law regarding the length of the school year in Oklahoma. Specifically, it increases the minimum number of instructional days required for schools that adopt a "school-hours policy," which allows districts to meet instructional time requirements based on hours rather than just days, to 173 days, starting with the 2027-2028 school year. Additionally, it mandates that parent-teacher conferences must offer an in-person meeting option for parents and legal guardians. The bill also includes a contingent effective date, meaning it will only become law if the total appropriations to the State Department of Education for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2028, are at least $175 million greater than those for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, with the law taking effect on July 1, 2027, if this condition is met.
