HB 5509 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING COOPERATIVE ARRANGEMENTS AMONG BOARDS OF EDUCATION.

This bill amends state law to allow school districts that form cooperative agreements (like sharing services) to be treated as a single local education agency. It streamlines their administrative status and aims to encourage cost-saving collaborations between school districts. The change directly affects school districts entering into such cooperative arrangements, making their partnerships legally recognized as one entity for purposes like funding and oversight.
