HB 20-1301: Electronic Attendance In School District Board Meeting

Bill Summary:

The act expresses the general assembly's intent that school district board of education (board) members attending and participating in board meetings electronically be included in the number of members present and necessary to convene a meeting and that a board's policy authorizing electronic participation include a procedure for ensuring that electronically participating members have real-time access to materials presented at the meeting. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)

CEA Position Rationale: It is critical that school boards meet and make decisions on a regular basis, even if there are extenuating circumstances. This bill, and existing law, require transparency and accountability for these meetings. CEA supports this bill with the belief that there will still be transparency and accountability to the public, along with public access to meetings and information.
Legislative Priorities: Attract and Retain High Quality Educators and Improve Educator Workload
