What it does
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill eliminates the sunset date on the dual enrollment credential grant program administered by the Higher Educational Aids Board. Under the program, HEAB awards 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. “Dual enrollment programs” are programs or courses of study designed to provide high school students with the opportunity to gain credits in both high school and a University of Wisconsin System school, technical college, or a private, nonprofit college. Grants are awarded to assist high school teachers in covering tuition expenses for courses taken to meet the minimum qualifications necessary to teach dual enrollment courses.
