An Act relative to vocational and trade school classes for public school students
This bill allows regular public high and middle schools (not specialized vocational schools) to offer vocational and trade classes to specific students who cannot access regional vocational programs. It directly affects students who were rejected by vocational schools, left such programs, or live in the district but cannot attend a regional school. Schools may choose to implement these programs voluntarily, and the Department of Education must create guidelines and a waiver process to support this. The law aims to expand local vocational opportunities without requiring schools to participate.
