Plain-language change summary

The amendment adds language to clarify that a division of postsecondary vocational programs is established within the technical high school system, specifically addressing the inclusion of aviation maintenance programs. It specifies eligibility criteria for students enrolling in these programs, stating they must have a high school diploma or its equivalent, or be over twenty-one years of age. This change is significant as it formally recognizes these programs as postsecondary education, which may affect students' access to federal financial aid such as Pell grants.
