HB 1239 -- Open School Enrollment by Contract Sponsor: Schoeller This bill establishes a procedure by which a school district or an initiative petition may place the issue of open enrollment by contract before the voters of the district. Approval by a two-thirds majority is required. Private schools that meet certain conditions and public schools that are not in the district of residence may become contractors. The bill specifies how contractors qualify, how the amount of the contract is to be calculated, when students may return to their residence districts, and how districts may opt out of open enrollment.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
