Changes the definition of a "qualified school" for purposes of the Missouri empowerment scholarship accounts program
HB 2130 updates the definition of a "qualified school" for Missouri's empowerment scholarship program. To qualify, schools must meet specific state education requirements (like dyslexia assessments, physical activity standards, and flag display rules) and comply with anti-discrimination laws. This change directly affects schools - both public and private, including charter and virtual schools - seeking to participate in the scholarship program by meeting these new compliance criteria.
