Relating generally to microschools.
HB 3482 establishes formal rules for microschools in West Virginia, defining them as a distinct category under home instruction exemptions. It requires microschool operators to have at least a high school diploma or equivalent, submit annual standardized test results for students, and provide notice of intent to county officials. The bill directly affects microschool operators, parents, and county education authorities who will enforce these standards. Key provisions include mandatory annual testing, instructor qualification requirements, and streamlined reporting to county boards - aligning microschools with existing home instruction frameworks while adding specific accountability measures.
