House Passed School Board Member Training

The House last week passed House Bill 312 by a vote of 32-0-9. This bill seems to be a reaction to have unwashed idiots lit aflame by their constantly stoked bigotry winning elections to school boards to not monitor education standards and results but instead who goes into bathrooms and who plays sports.

The bill would redirect their attention to education and legal due process issues that proper school boards members should be aware and well versed in.

School board members are currently required to engage both in financial responsibility training and a training to understand educational and legal issues about due process and special education.

This bill will require that a school board president inform each new member of the board of the training obligation. A school board president must also send a letter by January 15 of every year to any school board member who has not fulfilled the training obligation by January 1 following that member’s election or appointment.

The bill also makes the special education due process training requirement explicit in the Code for members of a charter school board of directors as well as members of a traditional or vocational technical district school board. This training is already required for charter schools by regulation.
