AN ACT relating to education.
SB 159 amends Kentucky law (KRS 156.690) to establish a program helping certified teachers purchase personal computers. The bill requires the Kentucky Board of Education to arrange competitive bidding for computer prices and organize vendor training for teachers. It directly affects Kentucky's certified teachers by providing cost-saving options and training support for personal computer use. The bill is currently in the Senate Education Committee after its February 13 introduction. (Note: The bill's abstract mentioning "gender-neutral language" does not align with the actual text, which focuses on the computer program.)
