K12 Programs Announcement
9/24/24 – On September 20th, the Governor vetoed House Bill 10. Sections 6.4-6.5A of House Bill10 would provide additional funding for the Opportunity Scholarship and ESA+ programs. In order for the bill to become law and funds for these programs to become available, both the House and Senate must override the Governor’s veto. The General Assembly is scheduled to reconvene October 9th, November 19th – November 22nd, and December 11th – December 13th at which time they may consider veto override votes among other matters. While both the House and Senate must override the veto, they are not required to do so on the same day.
If the General Assembly overrides the Governor’s veto and additional funds become available, SEAA will begin awarding eligible students whose applications were received during the priority period (February 1 – March 1, 2024) as soon as possible.
