Bill > S0824

This bill modifies Florida's dual enrollment program, which allows eligible secondary students to take postsecondary courses for credit towards both high school and college degrees. Key changes include exempting dual enrollment students from paying technology fees, clarifying that home education and private school students are generally responsible for their own instructional materials and transportation unless an "articulation agreement" (a formal agreement between schools) states otherwise, and allowing for these materials to be provided free of charge if specified in the agreement. The bill also requires postsecondary institutions eligible for dual enrollment to enter into articulation agreements with eligible private schools, and establishes a funding mechanism for these courses taken by private school students.
