Adjusts school board director compensation and requires training on school district funding and finance.

This bill increases the compensation for school board directors from $50 to $100 per day and raises the annual compensation cap from $4,800 to $13,750. It also mandates the Washington State School Directors' Association to develop a training program on school district funding and finance for all school board members. The training must cover state and local funding structures, budgeting practices, and fiscal accountability requirements. The bill requires new directors to complete the training within their first year and encourages renewal every term.
