making an appropriation to the department of education to fund the online tutoring program.

SB 117 allocates $1 million for the 2025-2027 biennium to fund the state’s existing online tutoring program for K-12 public school students. The funds are non-lapsing (remain available until spent) and require the Department of Education to annually report on program use and effectiveness to key legislative committees starting in 2026. The bill takes effect July 1, 2025, ensuring continued access to online tutoring support for students without requiring new program creation.
