Gov. Matt Mead signed legislation that strips the office of State Superintendent of Public Instruction of much of its power. Supt. Cindy Hill immediately served Mead with legal papers that seek to challenge the law. The bill replaces the elected superintendent of public instruction as head of the state Education Department with a director appointed by the governor. The superintendent would remain an elected state officer with some education duties. Senate File 104 was the first measure to pass the Legislature this session.
