establishing a committee to study changing school start times.

HB 184 establishes a committee to study school start times in Ohio. The committee will survey existing state laws and research on optimal start times for different school levels (elementary, middle, high school) and summarize evidence-based findings. It must submit a final report to state leaders by November 1, 2025, but does not change any current school schedules or mandate policy shifts. This study directly affects school districts and lawmakers who may use the findings to inform future decisions.
