Supplementing and amending appropriations to State Board of Education
HB 207 directs the State Treasurer to release additional funds from the state's unspent surplus revenue to the Department of Education for the 2025 fiscal year. This money is specifically designated to support the State Board of Education and the Aid for Exceptional Children program. The bill adds new funding categories to cover special education services for institutionalized individuals and juveniles held in detention centers. By utilizing existing surplus cash, the legislation provides immediate financial resources for these designated educational units without creating new debt.
