SB128 (2021) was enacted in response to the coronavirus pandemic, and gave school boards the option of approving a supplemental school year for students whose families requested it.

This report is a summary of those findings.
(Updated Sept. 2022) Kentucky's constitution grants responsibility to the General Assembly for the creation and funding of an efficient system of common schools. The legislature has created the Kentucky Board of Education, local school boards, elected by the local community, and school-based decision making councils (SBDMs). This document, designed by KSBA, provides a simplified outline of various responsibilities of the local school boards and SBDMs. Note: This document is not meant to be inclusive of all situations boards and councils may encounter. For more detailed information, please see KSBA’s School Board Leadership Guide. Relevant state laws include KRS 158, KRS 160 and KRS 160.345, which may be accessed at
