AI Summary
This bill requires all Arizona high schools and charter schools to offer at least two elective courses in career and technical education and vocational education each school year, which are programs designed to prepare students for specific trades or occupations. If possible, these courses should count towards community college degrees or certificates and be transferable to state universities. However, schools are not obligated to create new courses if they already offer at least two such electives when this law takes effect. The bill also clarifies that "career and technical education and vocational education" has the same meaning as defined in another section of Arizona law.
