An Act to expand virtual school eligibility for school choice students
This bill expands access to virtual schools for students participating in Massachusetts' existing school choice programs. It specifically allows students enrolled in programs established under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 76, Section 12B to enroll in virtual schools operated by their district of residence. The key change removes prior restrictions that prevented these students from accessing district-run virtual learning options. This policy adjustment directly affects school choice participants by broadening their educational program choices within the state's public education framework.
