Bill > SB3334

This bill aims to streamline the administration of Hawaii's public school system by eliminating the position of "complex area superintendent," a role that oversaw multiple schools within a geographic area, and by clarifying the authority for appointing principals. Specifically, it mandates that School Community Councils, which are groups within each school that include parents, staff, and community members, will submit their evaluations of principal candidates to the Superintendent of Education, who will have the ultimate decision-making power in hiring a principal. The bill also requires the Department of Education to create new rules to manage the duties previously handled by complex area superintendents and to establish training for principals and other educators.
