Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO HIGHER EDUCATION; ALLOWING HOME SCHOOL STUDENTS TO QUALIFY FOR LEGISLATIVE LOTTERY TUITION SCHOLARSHIPS.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing Legislative Lottery Tuition Scholarship Act to allow home school students to qualify for the legislative lottery tuition scholarships. The key provisions of the bill include defining "qualified student" to include students who have completed the requirements of a home-based or non-public-school primary educational program in New Mexico, in addition to those who have graduated from a public or accredited private New Mexico high school. This ensures that home school students are eligible for the tuition scholarships provided through the state's lottery fund, which can be used at public post-secondary educational institutions or tribal colleges in New Mexico.
