Plain-language change summary

The amendment to Bill SB 841 introduces a new section under the College and Career Success for All Students Act specifically focused on establishing a program to waive Advanced Placement (AP) exam fees for eligible students. Previously, this provision was part of the School Code but has now been shifted to ensure it is directly tied to the College and Career program. This change is significant because it highlights the state's commitment to supporting low-income students in accessing advanced coursework and potentially improving their educational opportunities.
