MINOR

The bill was finalized by removing redundant language regarding citizenship status and merging two separate lists of counseling services into a single, unified list. This change streamlines the statute by eliminating repetitive definitions and ensuring that the requirement for services to address the needs of all students is stated once clearly rather than twice.

Scope change

The scope of the bill remains focused on defining school counseling services, but the applicability is clarified by removing a duplicate provision that addressed citizenship status separately.

DEFINITION

Removed a redundant sentence stating that counseling services must address the needs of all students regardless of citizenship status, as this requirement was already included in the main text.

Deleted a duplicate list of counseling services (items 5 through 29) that repeated content already covered in the first list, consolidating the bill into a single, cohesive list of services.

Adjusted the numbering of the remaining counseling services to renumber the consolidated list sequentially from (1) to (22), replacing the original fragmented numbering.
