Act 46 identifies the following goals as central to any decision aimed at consolidating existing school governance structures:
• To provide substantive equity in the quality and variety of educational opportunities statewide.
• To lead students to achieve or exceed the State’s Educational Quality Standards.
• To maximize operational efficiencies through increased flexibility to manage, share, and transfer resources, with the goal of increasing the district-level ratio of students to full-time equivalent staff
• To promote transparency and accountability.
• To achieve these goals at a cost that parents, voters, and taxpayers value.
