Charter schools; bring forward code section regarding payments from State Department of Education.

SB 2490 is a procedural bill that reorganizes an existing Mississippi code section (previously 37-28-55) about charter school funding into a new location within the statutes. It does not create new policies but clarifies how the State Department of Education and school districts must pay charter schools for student enrollment, transportation, classroom supplies, and federal program funds - matching the same rules applied to traditional public schools. The bill directly affects charter schools and local school districts in Mississippi, ensuring payments align with existing funding formulas. The bill died in committee in February 2026 and never became law.
