HB 768 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in school directors, further providing for compensation and oath of office.

HB 768 amends Pennsylvania's Public School Code to allow school directors (elected or appointed members of school boards) to receive compensation for their service, which was previously prohibited. School boards can approve pay through a resolution at a regular meeting, but the amount must match compensation limits for similar local elected roles (like city council members) in the district's municipality or the median of such limits if the district spans multiple municipalities. The bill also updates the required oath of office for school directors to align with current standards. This change directly affects all school directors in Pennsylvania's public school districts.
