EDUCATION-TECH
This bill makes a technical correction to the Educational Opportunity for Military Children Act by updating the short title. The amendment clarifies the specific types of educator licenses required for teachers to receive certain benefits under the program. By revising the text to include "Professional Educator License" alongside other career and technical endorsements, the law ensures precise definitions for eligible staff. This change affects military children's education support programs by aligning the legal language with current teacher certification standards. The update was approved by the Governor and became effective on July 1, 2024.
