Bill > HB5124

This bill modifies the Hope Scholarship Program by expanding eligibility for participating schools and clarifying requirements for education service providers. Specifically, it defines "participating school" to include accredited non-public schools located in West Virginia that have notified the Hope Scholarship Board of their intent to participate and comply with program rules, and it adds requirements for these schools to notify the local superintendent of any student receiving scholarship funds, submit annual proof of accreditation, and provide requested information to the Board. The bill also clarifies that eligible recipients must have a household adjusted gross income under $100,000 annually.
