SB 1353 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Requires school districts to include the amount expended for legal services in their Annual Secretary of the Board Report

SB 1353 requires school districts to report the total money spent on legal services (like lawyer fees) in their existing Annual Secretary of the Board Report. This applies to all public school districts in the state, making their legal spending more transparent to the public. The bill does not change how districts spend money but mandates that this specific spending detail be included in a report they already submit each year. It is a procedural transparency measure with no direct impact on students, staff, or school budgets beyond reporting requirements.
