Mississippi Regional Early/Middle College High School Act of 2025; enact.

SB 2610, the Mississippi Regional Early/Middle College High School Act of 2025, establishes a framework for public high schools located on post-secondary campuses that allow students in grades 9-12 to earn college credits alongside their high school diploma. The bill requires funding to transfer from the state education department to partnering community colleges or universities to support these schools, while prohibiting tuition for most college courses. It mandates enrollment standards, including a lottery system for oversubscribed schools, and requires schools to follow statewide accountability standards and non-discrimination policies. The law directly affects Mississippi students seeking dual credit opportunities, post-secondary institutions hosting these schools, and local school districts partnering with them.
