This bill provides annual funding of $150,000 from the General Fund to support the Carleton Project, a nontraditional secondary school program, over a five-year period from fiscal year 2025-26 through fiscal year 2029-30. The funding is specifically designated to help the project expand its capacity by adding up to 10 additional students during this timeframe. By allocating a consistent $150,000 annually, the bill aims to support alternative education options and increase access to a nontraditional secondary school program. The funding will come from the General Fund, which is the state's primary operating fund, and will be managed through the Department of Education's School Finance and Operations division, demonstrating a commitment to providing diverse educational opportunities for students who may benefit from a non-standard academic approach.
