Requires public schools to establish the general municipal election day and the general election day as a school holiday

HB 1787 requires public school districts to observe general municipal election day and general election day as school holidays starting in the 2026-27 school year. This law directly affects all public school districts in the state by mandating that these election days be included in school calendars as non-instructional days. The key provision amends school calendar requirements to specifically add these election days to the list of required holidays, alongside existing days like Labor Day and Thanksgiving. This change applies to all school districts except those operating year-round or granted exemptions for unusual circumstances. The bill takes effect for the 2026-27 school year and beyond.
