These rules are open for public comment, with a rulemaking hearing scheduled for August 19-20.

Why it matters
The board is also considering limits on how public funds are used for homeschool enrichment programs run by outside contractors, amid concerns about transparency and misuse of funds. Furthermore, the board is reviewing tighter rules for facility schools that serve students with intense needs, following reports of sanctions against some facilities.
