SB 1558 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the Tennessee public charter school commission to June 30, 2030. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 49, Chapter 13.

SB 1558 extends the Tennessee public charter school commission's authority until June 30, 2030, by amending relevant state codes. It directly affects the commission itself, which oversees public charter schools, by preventing its automatic termination. The bill makes technical updates to legal references (TCA Title 4, Chapter 29; Title 49, Chapter 13) to reflect this extension. This is a procedural change with no new policies or funding impacts.
