Kentucky Senate Bill 128 has been approved by both chambers of the Kentucky General Assembly and signed into law by Governor Andy Beshear.  This bill, also referred to as KY SB 128 and known by some as the “redshirt” or the “do-over” bill, allows K-12 students currently enrolled in public or non-public schools to request to use the 2021-2022 school year as a supplemental year.  The student can retake and/or supplement coursework already completed.  

Our school district wants to take this opportunity to share some of the facts related to this bill so that you can make an informed decision about whether you would choose to have your child request to use the supplemental year.  These requests must be submitted to our central office by May 1st, 2021.  The student and/or parents may rescind this request at any time before May 31st, 2021.  

Our school district will make a decision at the May 3, 2021 Regular Meeting on whether to approve all or none of the requests for SB 128.  School districts are not allowed to decide on an individual basis.  If our school district decides to accept requests for a supplemental year, we will accept all requests and if we decide not to accept requests for a supplemental year, we will accept no requests.

The next meeting of the Franklin County Board of Education will be 6pm on April 12, 2021 at Central Office.
