AI Summary
This bill modifies existing law regarding the length of the school year and parent-teacher conferences. Specifically, it increases the minimum number of instructional days for schools that operate on a school-hours policy, moving the requirement from 166 days to 173 days, and delays the implementation of this change to the 2027-2028 school year. Additionally, the bill mandates that parent-teacher conferences must include an in-person meeting option for parents and legal guardians. The bill's effective date is contingent upon a specific condition related to the State Department of Education's appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2028, compared to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.
