allowing public schools to contract with any approved nonpublic school.

HB 768 allows public school districts to contract with any nonpublic school that meets state approval standards, removing previous restrictions on such partnerships. This directly affects public school districts seeking alternative educational arrangements and approved nonpublic schools eligible to provide services. The key provision eliminates prior limitations preventing public schools from contracting with nonpublic schools for specific programs or services, such as specialized instruction. The bill became law on July 15, 2025, after passing both chambers and receiving the governor's signature.
