Bill Summary

An Act to clarify the use of public funds for the purpose of alternative instruction.

AI Summary

This bill clarifies that parents, guardians, or anyone responsible for a child who has filed a notification of alternative instruction with the Department of Education or their local school district cannot receive state public funds, as defined by § 4-4-2, to pay for that child's education. Alternative instruction refers to educational options outside of traditional public schooling, and this provision aims to prevent the use of taxpayer money to fund such private educational choices for students already accounted for under an alternative instruction plan.
