Education - As enacted, extends reporting deadline for the advisory committee on innovations in K-12 education from December 31, 2025, to June 1, 2026. - Amends Chapter 426 of the Public Acts of 2025.

SB 1582 extends the deadline for the advisory committee on innovations in K-12 education to submit its final report from December 31, 2025, to June 1, 2026. This bill directly affects the committee, which will now continue operating until the new deadline rather than ceasing on the original date. The change is procedural, amending Chapter 426 of the 2025 Public Acts to update the committee's reporting timeline. No new policies or funding are created - only the schedule for the committee's work is adjusted. The bill passed the Tennessee Senate unanimously on February 2, 2026, and is pending in the House.
