An Act to Ensure Transparency in Student Transfer Requests

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill requires school districts to report the total number of student transfer requests they receive each year, including how many were accepted or denied, and the reasons for denials. The Commissioner of Education must then publish a version of this data online that does not include personal student information. This aims to make the student transfer process more open to the public.
