Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
Military children can enroll before moving
Qualifying military students can enroll in Kansas kindergarten through grade 12 before moving, without proof of address. Families must show a parent or person acting as parent will be stationed at a Kansas military installation this school year or next. If seats are unavailable, districts may require residency for attendance. Districts offering pre-kindergarten must also enroll eligible military children in advance or place them on a waiting list when full. Pre-kindergarten enrollment needs no proof of address, though attendance may require residency; districts need not create a program.
Military students keep required disability services
Kansas districts must take appropriate steps to provide required education and related services to advance-enrolled military students once they attend. This protection applies to students with an individualized education program (IEP) or a Section 504 plan.
States fund the military education compact
The Interstate Commission can charge each member state an annual assessment to fund its work. It sets a binding rule for dividing costs among states, with total assessments covering its approved annual budget. The law specifies no dollar amount and creates no direct household charge.
States must follow military school protections
All three branches of member states must enforce the military education compact, which protects school continuity for military children. Lawful commission actions, rules, and bylaws bind states; conflicting state laws are displaced only where they conflict. States that fail to comply receive notice and access to training or technical help; other compliance options must be exhausted before suspension or termination. An unresolved violation can lead to termination by a majority vote of member states. A state can also leave one year after its repeal law takes effect, with written notice to other member governors and the commission. States remain responsible for obligations and liabilities incurred through withdrawal or termination, including assessments owed through withdrawal.
