Bill Summary
Amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), entitled "An act relating to the public school system, including certain provisions applicable as well to private and parochial schools; amending, revising, consolidating and changing the laws relating thereto," in career and technical education, further providing for career and technical education equipment grants.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Public School Code of 1949 to modify how the Department of Education calculates career and technical education equipment grants. Specifically, the bill requires the department to use the most recent available data when determining grant allocations, with the data fixed as of June 1st before the school year in which the allocation occurs. If the department later discovers that the June 1st data is incorrect, it is now explicitly required to revise its calculations accordingly. The bill aims to improve the accuracy and flexibility of the grant allocation process for career and technical education equipment, ensuring that schools receive funding based on the most up-to-date and precise information available. The amendment takes effect immediately upon passage.
