relative to tracking special education complaints.
HB 76 requires the Department of Education to establish a centralized system for tracking all special education complaints filed by parents or students. This directly affects schools, parents, and students in special education programs by creating a standardized way to monitor complaint types, timelines, and resolutions. The key provision mandates that the system collect specific data points (like complaint category and resolution status) to improve transparency and accountability. The bill became law on June 2, 2025, and takes effect September 1, 2025.
