AI Summary

This bill allows students to substitute a computer science course for a third-year mathematics or science course to meet high school graduation requirements, provided certain conditions are met. The bill amends two existing laws to enable this substitution and outlines the requirements, such as obtaining approval from the student's school counselor and aligning the substitution with the student's high school and beyond plan. The bill aims to provide more flexibility for students to meet graduation requirements while ensuring they receive appropriate guidance and the substitution aligns with their educational goals.
