Bill > HB2676

This bill makes several changes to public education in Washington state, including updating the minimum anticipated lifetime for student transportation vehicles to 180 months for depreciation payment purposes, establishing a new universal online platform for high school and beyond plans that will be funded by withholding up to 1.9 percent of school district allocations, and adjusting the maximum full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollment for students participating in Running Start programs to 1.4 FTE in the 2025-26 school year and 1.2 FTE in subsequent years. The bill also declares an emergency, meaning it takes effect immediately upon passage.
