  • Amends Section 37-15-31 of Mississippi Code to require approved student transfers between school districts to remain in effect until the student's high school graduation unless the student's residential address subsequently changes.

  • Modifies the process for mutual consent transfers between school boards by making approved transfers permanent rather than subject to annual review or reconsideration.
