HB 2527: An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in early learning programs, further providing for definitions.

HB 2527 amends Pennsylvania's Public School Code to update the definition of an 'eligible student' for early learning programs. Under the new provisions, a child qualifies if they are at least three years old, younger than the kindergarten entry age in their district, and live in a household earning no more than 400% of the federal poverty level. This legislative change directly affects eligibility criteria for early childhood education funding and services in the state.
