This amendment eliminates the ongoing General Fund appropriations totaling $400,000 per year beginning in fiscal year 2023-24 to the Office of Innovation program within the Department of Education for the establishment of a mobile learning lab for science, technology, engineering and mathematics and instead provides one-time General Fund appropriations totaling $400,000 to the same program within the department to be used for the same purpose.
The $400,000 includes a one-time General Fund appropriation of $250,000 in fiscal year 2024-25 for a mobile learning lab to allow for students in all areas of the State to engage in hands-on learning and a one-time General Fund appropriation of $150,000 in fiscal year 2024-25 for contracted staffing services to support the mobile learning lab.
