AI Summary

This bill calls for the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to conduct a comprehensive study of vocational education programs in Massachusetts. The study will evaluate whether students across the Commonwealth have reasonable access to high-quality, state-approved vocational education programs, including access to adequate transportation and equipment, as well as whether these programs have proper oversight and accountability measures. If the study finds that access to or oversight of vocational education is inadequate, the Department, in consultation with the Massachusetts School Building Authority, will submit a report detailing the areas of inadequacy and estimating the cost of establishing new vocational programs to meet the unmet demand.
