AI Summary

This bill amends Oregon Revised Statutes to allow state moneys from the Statewide Education Initiatives Account to fund regional career and technical education (CTE) programs. Specifically, the bill adds a new provision that permits using account funds to support CTE programs that are collaboratively provided by an education service district or multiple school districts within the same region. Career and technical education programs are typically vocational training initiatives that prepare students for specific trades or technical careers. The bill also includes an emergency clause, which means it will take effect immediately on July 1, 2025, and is considered urgent for maintaining public well-being. By enabling additional funding for regional CTE programs, the legislation aims to support workforce development and provide students with practical skills and career preparation opportunities across different educational jurisdictions in Oregon.
