HB1112

House Bill 1112 amends Arkansas Code § 6-18-203 regarding the school attendance eligibility for students residing on tracts of land that span two school districts. Under current law, children typically must attend the school district where their residence is physically located. This bill expands eligibility, allowing students to attend either of the two districts in which their land or primary residence is located, provided they meet specific criteria. Specifically, it allows for this flexibility if the undivided tract of land is split between two districts or if the principal place of residence itself is split between two districts. This change simplifies the process for families whose property lines cross school district boundaries.
