Bill Summary
PREPARE Act Providing Rural Equity, Parity, and Reinvestment in Education Act
AI Summary
This bill, the Providing Rural Equity, Parity, and Reinvestment in Education Act (PREPARE Act), amends the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 to increase the allocation for rural areas. Specifically, it increases the minimum percentage of funds that must be used for rural areas from 10% to 15%. It also expands the allowable uses of these funds to include fostering innovation in career and technical education (CTE) programs and promoting the development and implementation of programs of study or career pathways aligned with in-demand occupations or industries. The bill also defines key terms such as "CTE concentrator" and "CTE participant" to provide clarity on the population of students served by these programs.
