AI Summary
This bill modifies the composition of the West Virginia Hope Scholarship Board, which oversees the Hope Scholarship Program, by making the State Attorney General, the State Superintendent of Schools, and the Chancellor of Higher Education nonvoting members, and by removing a provision that allowed for the appointment of parents who intended to apply for the scholarship for initial board members, instead focusing on parents of current Hope Scholarship students for future appointments, with a requirement for these parent members to represent diverse educational options for their children.
