An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, providing for Bilingual Educators Advancement Grant Program.

HB 1991 would amend Pennsylvania's Public School Code to establish a Bilingual Educators Advancement Grant Program. The program would provide state funding to public school districts to support professional development and resources for bilingual educators. This directly affects bilingual teachers and their school districts by creating a new funding stream for advancing their skills in bilingual education. The key mechanism is the allocation of state grants to districts meeting specific criteria, aiming to enhance bilingual education quality.
