Bill summary

House committee substitute to the 4th edition makes the following changes.

Part X.

Adds to the proposed changes to GS 115C-84.2(f)(5), which revises the second of the three plans a year-round school is permitted to use to provide instructional days throughout the entire school calendar year (sub-subdivision b.). Reinstates previously proposed changes to the subdivision (added by the 2nd edition and removed by the 4th edition), establishing an alternative plan for year-round schools for local school administrative units with both single- and multi-track instructional calendars as new sub-subdivision d. Permits a plan for a single-track instructional calendar that is identical to at least one track of a multi-track instructional calendar adopted by the local board that meets the statutory requirements of either the plan described in sub-subdivision a. or c., which provides for staggered quarters or sessions.
