Bill > S2514

This bill makes changes to Florida's education laws, first by amending the conditions under which funds in a New Worlds Scholarship Account, which helps students access educational services, will revert to the state, now specifying that funds will revert on December 31, 2026, instead of after one year of inactivity, unless the scholarship is denied or revoked for fraud. Second, it adds a provision to the Florida Education Finance Program, which is the primary source of funding for public schools, to provide a supplement for school districts experiencing a decline in student enrollment, with a requirement that districts considered "fiscally constrained" (meaning they have fewer local resources) will receive a higher percentage of this supplement compared to "non-fiscally constrained" districts.
