SB 988 Programs designed to promote educational opportunities.

Introduced by: W. Henry Maxwell | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY:

Programs designed to promote educational opportunities. Authorizes school divisions with existing at-risk four-year-old programs to apply for additional funds through the grants for these programs. The grant program is currently intended to reduce the number of unserved at-risk four-year-olds. This provision defines "unserved at-risk children" as including any children who could not be served by available Head Start programs within the jurisdiction and who have been receiving services by the school division through available funds, whether federal or local. School divisions providing such services may count the children who could not be served by the local Head Start as "unserved" and may apply for the state grant funds; however, the local governing body cannot reduce the local appropriations for its funding of the program.
