SB89

Senate Bill 89 amends Arkansas Code § 6-11-129 to expand and standardize the information that school districts are required to publish on their websites. The bill mandates that school districts electronically post specific administrative and financial data to increase transparency. Requirements include posting meeting minutes within 24 hours of approval, publishing agendas for regular meetings at least 24 hours in advance, and posting agendas for special or emergency meetings at least two hours in advance. Additionally, the bill requires the publication of the names, email addresses, positions, and terms of office for all members of the school district board of directors. These requirements apply to either the district's own website or the website of their education service cooperative if the cooperative manages the district's site.
