Bill Summary

An Act relating to schools; amending 70 O.S. 2021, Section 628.13, which relates to concurrent enrollment; requiring school districts to cover the cost of tuition waivers for participating high school seniors; requiring school districts to cover the cost of tuition waivers for high school juniors subject to available funds; requiring students to reimburse fifty percent of the tuition costs if they withdraw; providing an effective date; and declaring an emergency.

AI Summary

This bill requires school districts to cover the cost of tuition waivers for high school seniors participating in concurrent enrollment, which allows them to take college courses while still in high school. For high school juniors, school districts will also cover tuition waiver costs, but this is dependent on the availability of district funds. Additionally, if a student withdraws from a concurrent enrollment course after the deadline, they will be responsible for reimbursing their school district for half of the tuition costs. The bill also specifies an effective date of July 1, 2026, and declares an emergency, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
