What changed in the latest version
130 added · 121 removedPlain-language change summary
The recent amendments to SB 3768 introduced an important priority of services for students with both hearing and visual impairments who are referred to the Philip J. Rock Center and School. These students cannot be denied enrollment unless their presence would pose a health or safety risk to others. Additionally, some administrative powers granted to the chief administrator of the Center have been removed, including the ability to negotiate employee contracts and develop budgets, which might impact how effectively the Center can manage its resources. These changes aim to enhance access for students with specific needs while potentially streamlining administrative processes.
