Education: board members; state board of education; require members to be selected from districts. Amends sec. 282a of 1954 PA 116 (MCL 168.282a) by adding sec. 282b.

This bill proposes changing how members are selected for the Michigan State Board of Education by requiring political parties to nominate candidates from specific geographic districts. Under the new rules, each party would nominate one candidate from District 1 and one from District 4 in even-numbered years starting in 2026, and one from District 2 and one from District 3 in odd-numbered years starting in 2028. These district-based nominations would replace the previous system where parties nominated candidates without specific geographic requirements. The legislation aims to ensure that board members represent distinct regions of the state rather than being chosen solely by statewide party conventions.
