This bill amends the Gardiner Scholarship Program, which provides educational funds for students with disabilities in Florida. The key provisions include: prohibiting students enrolled in the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind from being eligible; requiring accounts to be closed and funds to revert to the state after 3 consecutive years of inactivity; specifying that certain actions by private schools can make them ineligible to participate; and clarifying parent and student responsibilities, including that a student's account will be inactive if the parent does not procure necessary educational services for 2 consecutive fiscal years.
