AI Summary

This bill amends existing Virginia law to adjust the composition of advisory committees and work groups involved in the administration of the College and Career Ready Virginia Program, a state initiative designed to help high school students earn college credit. Specifically, the bill removes the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond from the membership of both the advisory committee, which provides guidance on the program's purpose and requirements, and the work group, which focuses on incorporating career and technical education coursework into the program. The College and Career Ready Virginia Program, administered by the Department of Education and the Virginia Community College System (VCCS), aims to improve student access to and preparedness for college-level courses while still in high school.
