Bill Text

Kentucky HB883 regulates nonresident pupil enrollment in virtual programs, setting caps and monitoring requirements.

Kentucky HB883 amends the state's education code to establish policies for nonresident pupil enrollment in virtual programs. Starting from the 2026-2027 school year, districts can enroll nonresident pupils in virtual programs, but the total enrollment must not exceed 10% of the previous year's total districtwide student enrollment. If the statewide enrollment of nonresident pupils in virtual programs reaches 0.85% of the previous year's total statewide student enrollment, the Kentucky Department of Education must alert all districts.
