Adds to existing law to provide that certain funds shall be allocated for a kindergarten through grade 3 technology program covering reading, math, science, or a combination of such subjects.

EDUCATION -- Adds to existing law to provide that certain funds shall be allocated for a kindergarten through grade 3 technology program covering reading, math, science, or a combination of such subjects.

EDUCATION

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

This bill directs the department of education to spend 20 percent or $2 million which ever is less to a home-delivered remediation program if over $26 million is spent on K-3 literacy. This protects the base $26 million that already exists in the K-3 literacy program; however, a percentage of any added funds will be directed to a different approach to remediation to get useful data. It is anticipated that federal funds will be made available for remediation in FY2022.
