The bill requires the State Board of Education and local school boards to publish an agenda before holding certain meetings.

  • Utah Code § 53E-3-203

    meet at the call of the [chairman]chair and at least 11 times each year[.]; → meet at the call of the chair and at least 11 times each year; and at least 48 hours before holding the meeting required under Subsection (1)(a), publish an agenda for the meeting on the state board's website.

    This change adds a requirement for the State Board of Education to publish an agenda on its website 48 hours before meetings.

  • Utah Code § 53E-3-203

    The state board may disregard the requirement in Subsection (1)(a)(ii) if the emergency requirements described in Subsection 52-4-202(5) are met.

    This creates an exception allowing the State Board of Education to bypass the agenda publication requirement during emergencies.

  • A local school board may disregard the requirement in Subsection (2)(a)(iii) if the emergency requirements described in Subsection 52-4-202(5) are met.

    This provides local school boards with an exception to the agenda publication requirement during emergencies.
