Pennsylvania HB683 amends the duties of district superintendents to include maintaining specific student-to-teacher ratios across different grade levels. Superintendents must ensure ratios do not exceed 24 students per teacher in kindergarten, 25 students per teacher in grades four to six, and 24 students per teacher in grades seven to twelve. If these ratios are exceeded, superintendents must notify parents within ten days and provide a plan to reduce class sizes. The superintendents must also have a seat on the board of school directors but cannot vote. This act will take effect in 60 days.
