flag Kentucky proposes new bills to boost school district transparency and oversight amid budget concerns.

flag Kentucky lawmakers introduced two bills to enhance oversight and transparency in large school districts, particularly Jefferson County and Fayette County, following budget issues and accountability concerns. flag Senate Bill 1 clarifies roles between school boards and superintendents, assigning boards strategic and fiscal oversight while superintendents handle daily operations. flag Senate Bill 3 mandates public disclosure of budget details, expenditures, and audits two weeks before board meetings and requires online posting of financial records. flag The legislation aims to improve trust in how taxpayer funds are used, without undermining local control. flag Both bills are pending committee assignment and reflect ongoing efforts to strengthen governance and fiscal responsibility in Kentucky’s largest school districts.
