HB 2050 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Requires school superintendents of certain school districts to reside within the school district

HB 2050 requires school superintendents in Missouri school districts to reside within the district boundaries if the district is unaccredited, at risk of losing accreditation, or facing a funding deficit. This rule applies to all new superintendent contracts entered into after the bill's effective date. The bill also allows districts to share a superintendent, requiring the shared superintendent to reside in a district meeting one of the three conditions, and provides $30,000 annually in state aid for districts that share a superintendent (subject to using funds for teacher compensation or counseling services).
