An Act further regulating receivership of school districts designated as chronically underperforming

This bill amends Massachusetts law to require the state education commissioner to provide a detailed turnaround plan with specific metrics to school districts designated as chronically underperforming. The plan must be delivered within 60 days of the district's designation and outlines the steps needed for the district to exit receivership. Additionally, the legislation establishes a mandatory timeline ensuring that local control is returned to the school district after six years of state oversight. These changes directly affect school committees in struggling districts by setting clear expectations for improvement and limiting the duration of external management.
