Act 170 Next Steps in Vermont's Education Transformation Law
ACT 170
Governor Scott signed H.955 on June 18 and the bill was enacted as Act 170. Under this new law, school boards are responsible for making time sensitive decisions.
​
Within 30 days of passage, supervisory union and supervisory district boards must appoint a representative to serve on its regional Cooperative Education Service Area (CESA) board. ​
The act also establishes a statewide merger study process. By September 1, 2026, regional facilitators will be hired to organize and support the merger groups. By September 15, 2026, each school district board must appoint at least one current board member to serve on its assigned merger group, subject to the participation requirements contained in 16 V.S.A. §§ 706 and 707.

Founded in 1963, the VSBA is a private, nonprofit membership association dedicated to serving Vermont’s elected school boards. We provide our members with services, support and counsel as they lead their districts, navigate relationships and promote public education across Vermont.
