Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 22.1-36.1 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:

§ 22.1-36.1. Composition of school board in certain cases.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when a county contains a town that is a separate school division and contains an entire supervisor election district, the school board for such county, regardless of whether it is elected or appointed, shall have no member representing such election district town. Instead, the county school board shall be comprised of one member elected or appointed from each of the remaining election districts within the county, excluding the election district in which such town is located, and an additional member elected or appointed at large from the entire county, excluding the town.
