Education Efficiency Act; create to establish the School District Administrative Efficiency and Joinder Task Force.

The Education Efficiency Act (HB 608) creates a task force to study whether consolidating Mississippi school districts - particularly in counties with multiple districts or districts spanning two counties - would improve educational efficiency. The task force will gather data on student enrollment, administrative costs, district accreditation, and socio-economic factors to assess feasibility and potential savings. It must produce a detailed report with consolidation recommendations by December 31, 2025, for the legislature and governor. This bill directly affects school districts in multi-district counties and aims to address operational efficiency through evidence-based analysis.
