LC 1352 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Revise the Montana interstate compact on educational opportunities for military children

This bill updates Montana's adoption of the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children, which helps students of military families maintain educational continuity when their parents move or deploy. The legislation clarifies how the state commission can calculate annual assessment fees based on the number of military children in Montana and corrects outdated references to federal law. Key provisions require schools to facilitate timely enrollment, transfer education records efficiently, and ensure equal access to programs and extracurricular activities for military children across member states. The bill amends existing state code to formalize these interstate agreements and takes effect immediately upon passage.
