AI Summary
This bill creates a Year-round School Pilot Program in Florida for a period of 4 school years beginning in the 2024-2025 school year. The program aims to assist school districts in establishing year-round school programs in at least one elementary school and study the issues, benefits, and schedule options for implementing year-round school programs. School districts must apply to the Department of Education to participate, and the Commissioner of Education will select five school districts to take part, representing a variety of demographics. Participating school districts are required to implement a single-track or multi-track schedule and provide data to the Department of Education to assess the academic and safety benefits, as well as potential barriers, of the year-round school program. Upon completion of the program, the Commissioner of Education will provide a report with recommendations on the adoption of year-round school programs for all students.
