Highlights Include:
- Oversight and Governance: a new Governor-appointed Education Commissioner, plus a new annual July 1 material-concern notice from authorizers.
- Student Programs: English learner reclassification, K-2 early math diagnostics, and TK/kindergarten take-home device limits.
- Employer Obligations: misconduct investigations, limits on AI in discipline and termination.
- Public Records and AI: CPRA deadlines moving to business days and new rules on AI requesters.
