Supplementing and amending appropriations to State Department of Education
This bill authorizes the West Virginia State Department of Education to spend an additional $10 million from the state's general revenue surplus for the 2025 fiscal year. The funds are specifically designated for the "Communities in Schools" program, which provides support services to students. By adding this new appropriation item, the legislation allows the department to allocate money directly to this designated organization without changing other existing budgets. The bill was approved by the governor and enacted as part of the state's budget adjustments for that year.
