STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
▶ Show statement of purpose▼ Hide statement of purpose
This bill encourages parents to be involved in their elementary child's education and partner with public school teachers. If an elementary school student can get one year ahead in their academic studies, the parents can negotiate a flexible attendance schedule to supplement the public school curriculum and for other family activities. The bill has a mechanism so schools will not lose funding, how to determine if the child is advanced, and makes the program optional to parents and schools.
