The bill also repeals the local accountability system grant program. Additionally, the bill reduces the membership of the accountability, accreditation, student performance, and resource inequity task force from 26 to 25 members by removing the task force member who is a superintendent representing a rural school district that participates in the repealed local accountability system grant program.
