Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children; correct reference to statutory provision for the U.S. Code.
HB 1066 corrects a reference in Mississippi's existing "Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children" to properly cite the relevant U.S. Code provisions regarding active duty orders. The bill does not change the compact's policy or create new requirements; it only updates a statutory citation to ensure legal accuracy. The compact itself helps military children transition between schools by addressing barriers like record transfers and enrollment delays during family relocations. This correction affects the legal implementation of the compact but does not alter the support provided to military-connected students or schools.
