HB201:

In-person instruction; education vouchers, etc.

Bill Summary:

In-person instruction; education vouchers; emergency.
Requires, in the event that any school board does not provide the
option of in-person instruction as the sole method of instruction
for any enrolled student, the parent of any such student who withdraws
his child from attendance to receive, upon request, an education
voucher in an amount equal to a prorated share of the applicable
Standards of Quality per-pupil state funds appropriated for public
school purposes and apportioned to the school division, including
the per-pupil share of state sales tax funding in basic aid and any
state per-pupil share of special education funding for which the
child is eligible, to cover the expenses of providing in-person instruction
in an alternative setting. The bill permits the Department of Education
to establish rules, regulations, or procedures for the issuance of
such education vouchers. The bill contains an emergency clause.
