Massachusetts H694 seeks to preserve local control of Chapter 74 admissions policies for vocational-technical schools.

Massachusetts H694 amends Chapter 74 of the General Laws to preserve local control of admissions policies for vocational-technical schools. It specifies that admission requirements for these schools should be determined by the district trustees or, if none exist, the school committee. Changes to these requirements must be approved by a majority vote of the district trustees and can only be made after a public hearing held at least thirty days after the proposed change is made public.
