An act relating to providing positions and funding to support statewide student support systems

This bill creates new positions and provides funding to the Vermont Agency of Education to support student support systems, literacy efforts, and community schools. It establishes five new staff roles focused on coaching educators in tiered support systems and scientifically-based literacy techniques, while also extending funding for the Community Schools Program for three years. The legislation includes requirements for schools to conduct needs assessments, implement community school programs, and undergo annual evaluations to ensure progress. Additionally, it allocates money to improve the state's Learning Management System and allows flexibility in how literacy funding is used between contractors and internal positions.
