SB 182 modifies Alaska's public school enrollment rules, allowing parents to apply for their child to attend schools outside their resident district if space is available, while requiring districts to prioritize siblings and process applications in order. It mandates that school districts publish online details about enrollment policies, capacity, applications, and denials. The bill also adds requirements for schools to report annual performance data - including test results, graduation rates, and student demographics - to the state education department and share this information publicly. These changes apply directly to all public schools, charter schools, and correspondence programs in Alaska, focusing on transparency and parental choice in school assignments.
