MINOR
The bill sponsor changed from Senator Grady to Senator Martin, and the title was amended with minor wording adjustments. The substantive policy content remains largely the same, with only slight refinements to how computer science credits substitute for math credits and career technical education approval language.
TECHNICAL

Sponsor name changed from Senator Grady to Senator Martin, indicating a different legislator is now advancing the bill.

REQUIREMENT

The title was slightly revised to change 'approved for on credit' to 'approved for one credit' in the career technical education section, clarifying the credit requirement.

The title was updated to remove the requirement that computer science courses used to fulfill science credits be denoted as equivalent to high school science courses on transcripts, narrowing the transcript notation requirement to only math credits.
