Bill Summary
An Act relating to education; specifying apportionment of certain appropriated funds; providing an effective date; and declaring an emergency.
AI Summary
This bill specifies that One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) from funds originally appropriated in House Bill No. 2766 of the 1st Session of the 60th Oklahoma Legislature shall be specifically dedicated to funding the Teach for America program, which is a national organization that recruits and trains recent college graduates to teach in low-income schools. The bill includes two additional sections: one establishing that the act will become effective on July 1, 2025, and another declaring an emergency provision, which means the bill will take effect immediately upon its passage and approval. By explicitly earmarking these funds for Teach for America, the bill ensures that a specific amount of previously appropriated educational funding will be directed to this teacher recruitment and training program.
