Bill > SB90

This bill appropriates $15 million from the State General Fund to the Department of Education to create a grant program that helps teachers and specialized instructional support personnel obtain necessary classroom and school supplies. The funding is limited to $7.5 million in Fiscal Year 2025-2026, and the Department will partner with one or more organizations to administer the program. Under the program, each teacher or support personnel can typically request up to $500 in supplies, though they may request additional funds if other funding sources are available. "Specialized instructional support personnel" is broadly defined to include roles such as school counselors, psychologists, social workers, nurses, speech-language pathologists, library media specialists, and other qualified professionals who provide services like assessment, diagnosis, counseling, and therapeutic support to students. Any unspent funds must be returned to the State General Fund by September 17, 2027, and the bill becomes effective immediately upon passage and approval.
