Bill > SB93

This bill modifies how students in district-wide early education programs are counted for funding purposes and makes several technical changes to existing education statutes. Specifically, the bill removes the previous provision that counted early education students as only one-half of a full-time equivalent student, instead counting them as full-time equivalent students. The bill also repeals several sections of existing law related to educational programs, including specific subsections of statutes concerning early education and student counting methods. These changes appear to be part of a broader effort to streamline and update Alaska's educational funding and reporting regulations. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, which gives school districts and state education administrators time to prepare for and implement these changes. The modifications aim to potentially provide more consistent and comprehensive funding for early education programs across school districts in Alaska.
