Description
PFPS Summary: FL SB7030 makes several changes to the state's voucher programs, mostly administrative in nature. The bill establishes a priority criteria based on income for the Hope voucher program and eliminates a similar priority in the Florida Tax Credit voucher program. It eliminates a requirement that private schools participating in the Family Empowerment voucher program provide statewide assessments upon students' request. The bill establishes a fund for vouchers made up of General Appropriations Act and Education Enrollment Stabilization Fund monies and requires provision of supplemental state funds to stabilize voucher funding in certain circumstances.
