I support HB 1729 because it offers school districts the option to access a centralized ERP system that could improve efficiency, transparency, and data accuracy without mandating participation. If implemented with strong local control, clear cost protections, and true voluntariness, this approach could help districts reduce administrative burden and redirect resources where they belong — supporting students and classrooms.
