The Duval County School Board is meeting Wednesday morning to discuss potential legal action against the state regarding the controversial House Bill 7069 passed in June.
Broward County has already filed legal action over the law and Duval county could be joining that lawsuit.
There are two Duval county schools at risk of being turned into charter schools that would receive state funds thanks to the new law after they received "D" grades this year, impacting hundred of Duval County students.
Local parents are determined to not let that happen.
"I'm glad for the improvement, but that's what it should be. That's the whole purpose, for going to school," said local parent Eunice Barnum.
Matthew Gilbert and Northwestern are those middle schools that are facing that change due to HB 7069.
Action News Jax told you in June when several Duval County School Board members met with Governor Rick Scott and urged him not to sign the bill.
"We're really disappointed, that the bill was signed. We put forth a lot of effort locally to express our concerns with the bill," said DCPS Board member, Becki Couch.
Action News Jax was there when parents voiced there concerns to the Governor during a recent visit to Jacksonville beach, and parents tell us they’ll continue advocating against the law.
"We're supposed to have these high quality teachers, these high quality principals...everybody there is supposed to have degrees, so why is it our children can't read?" said local parent Eunice Barnum.
This mornings meeting is set to start at 9:30.
