SB 22-054

Senate Bill 22-054, now signed into law, allows the state review panel to suggest that a district public school be turned into a community school if the school doesn’t show significant improvement after following its turnaround plan. This affects schools that are struggling and could lead to changes in how these schools operate by adopting the community school model, which typically involves partnerships with local organizations to provide additional support services for students and families. Since the bill has been signed, it is now law and can be implemented by the state review panel as needed.

Official Summary

The act authorizes the state review panel to recommend that a district public school be converted to a community school if the district public school fails to make substantial progress under its turnaround plan. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
