Major Legislative Attack to Derail SBDM
SB 152 was filed this week to drastically diminish school council authority. SB 152 will remove the local teacher and parent voices from a school and replace with decisions by the principal, superintendent and school board. SB 152 provides that school-based policies can be disapproved by the local board for any reason; thus, school boards will dictate what policies govern individual schools and second guess school councils.
