Bill > H496

This bill amends Massachusetts General Law Chapter 71, Section 37C, which likely pertains to the responsibilities of school committees, by adding "and the boards of trustees of the commonwealth charter school" after "school committee." This change means that the provisions of Section 37C, whatever they may be, will now also apply to the boards of trustees of commonwealth charter schools, extending their scope to include these specific educational institutions. The context provided by the bill title, "For the further promotion of racial balance," suggests that Section 37C likely deals with matters related to ensuring racial balance within the educational system, and this amendment aims to ensure that charter schools are also subject to these requirements.
