What’s in it

This bill requires the boards of directors of school districts to select at least one student to act as a liaison between the board, administrators, teachers, the student council, and the general student population. The student liason must have a seat at the table of all board meetings and board subcommittee meetings in a nonvoting capacity; and have access to all nonconfidential board meeting materials. The board must develop and implement an application and selection process. The student liaison may perform functions of benefit to the students and the district that the board deems appropriate for a student to carry out.
