SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)

Selection of local school boards; school board selection commissions. Abolishes school board selection commissions in school divisions composed of a single county and gives the county governing body all powers and duties previously held by the school board selection commission, including selection of the school board. The bill also eliminates, in single-county school divisions, referendums as a method of authorizing school board appointment by the county governing body or abolishing the school board selection commission. The bill finally specifies that the appointment of a tie breaker by an elected school board shall be made at the annual organizational meeting of the school board.
