What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Office of Educational Opportunity in the University of

Wisconsin System to award grants to school districts, independent charter schools,

and private schools participating in a parental choice program to support dual

enrollment programs taught in high schools. The bill defines “dual enrollment

programs” as programs or courses of study designed to provide high school students

with the opportunity to gain credits in both high school and a UW System school or

technical college. Under the bill, grants are awarded to assist high school teachers

in meeting the minimal qualifications necessary to teach dual enrollment courses.

No grants may be awarded after June 30, 2022.
