This bill requires school districts that operate institutional education programs in state long-term juvenile institutions to provide access to elective computer science courses, while allowing flexibility to adapt the curriculum and instructional activities if there are facility or technology security limitations that prevent full alignment with state computer science learning standards. The bill also requires the school districts to report annually on the number of students enrolled in the computer science courses, a description of the courses, and any limitations they faced in offering the courses. The bill is null and void if specific funding is not provided in the state's omnibus appropriations act by June 30, 2022.
