Establishes task force to study issues and make recommendations regarding Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf.

This bill establishes a 21-member task force to study the Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf and make recommendations. The task force, including students, parents, educators, and deaf community experts, will examine issues like facility conditions, enrollment trends, governance structure, and instructional challenges affecting the school. It will analyze how to improve the school's ability to prepare deaf and hard-of-hearing students for postsecondary education or careers. The bill itself creates the study mechanism but does not enact policy changes.
