Bill Summary
This bill requires each school district that includes any of the grades 9 through 12 to provide to the local Workforce Investment Board a list of students enrolled in those grades who left school prior to graduation and did not indicate an intention to complete high school. The list is to be forwarded to the Workforce Investment Board by February 15 and July 15 of each school year. The provisions of this bill mirror a December 6, 2000 directive sent from the Department of Education to school districts. The directive was based on a 1988 Attorney General's opinion that Workforce Investment Boards have a right to access this information. Currently it would appear that such information is not being routinely provided by school districts to these boards.
