Modifies provisions governing teacher recruitment and retention state scholarships

HB 792 creates a Missouri state scholarship program to support teacher education students. It provides up to full tuition and educational costs at Missouri public universities (capped at University of Missouri-Columbia rates) for eligible students who commit to teaching in hard-to-staff schools or subjects for two years per year of scholarship received. The program increases annual scholarship availability from 200 (2024-25) to 600 (2030+) with corresponding funding limits, targeting students who are Missouri residents, maintain a 2.5 GPA, and agree to teach in high-need schools. This directly affects prospective teachers pursuing degrees at Missouri four-year colleges, with repayment required if the teaching commitment isn't met.
