Bill > S1512

This bill authorizes the Auditor General to conduct audits of nonprofit scholarship-funding organizations, which are organizations that provide scholarships, to ensure they are complying with state law. It also establishes the Florida Personal Learning Scholarship Accounts program, which provides scholarships for students with disabilities to use for educational services and materials, and revises eligibility requirements for the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program, a program that provides scholarships to students from low-income families to attend private schools. Additionally, the bill outlines new requirements for students with disabilities to earn a standard high school diploma, including options for portfolios and work experience, and prohibits school districts from imposing additional requirements or fees on private instructional personnel hired by parents.
