SB 1342 Pennsylvania Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in career and technical education, further providing for career and technical education equipment grants.

This bill amends Pennsylvania's Public School Code to establish a new grant program that provides funding for career and technical education equipment. It directs the Department of Education to calculate the distribution of these grants using the most recent available data, with the calculation date set for June 1st of the year before the school year begins. The law also requires the department to update its calculations if the initial data is later found to be incorrect. These changes directly affect public schools by creating a mechanism to allocate financial resources specifically for purchasing equipment used in vocational training programs.
