AI Summary

This bill requires the superintendent of public instruction to maintain an online record of all final decisions made in response to special education community complaints, making these decisions publicly accessible and free of charge for 20 years after they are finalized. If historical records are not available for the full 20 years, the office must provide records for the longest period available. This change is part of updating existing state law (RCW 28A.155.090) concerning the duties and authorities of the superintendent regarding special education services for children with disabilities.
