What changed in the latest version
207 added · 184 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of Bill HB 2520 now clearly defines that schools must first submit and receive approval for their K-3 reading program plans before they can access funds intended to improve reading proficiency for children in kindergarten through third grade. Additionally, the bill emphasizes that these funds are specifically aimed at assisting students in grades K-2, with a particular focus on those in grade three who are struggling with reading skills. This change is important because it ensures that schools must develop effective reading strategies before receiving financial support, ultimately aiming to enhance reading outcomes for young learners.
