Bill > HR1348

This resolution proposes an amendment to the state Constitution that would shift the authority for determining the qualifications, duties, and salary of school superintendents from the General Assembly to local boards of education, as guided by general law. It also introduces an alternative to the current system where superintendents are appointed by boards of education: the General Assembly could authorize local school systems, through a local referendum where voters approve, to elect their superintendents instead of appointing them. This change aims to give local control over superintendent roles and potentially allow for voter election of these key education officials.
