Establishes the learner-first district to provide innovative public educational services.

The bill creates the learner-first district, a new public school district aimed at providing innovative, flexible, and transparent educational services. Governed by a board, the district will offer mastery-based learning, allowing students to progress based on evidence of mastery rather than seat time. Parents and legal guardians can choose educational providers, including teachers and faculty members from community colleges or state universities, to provide direct instruction.
