The bill proposes an appropriation of $9,500,000 for the R.I.S.E. Arkansas program, which is aimed at providing grants and aid to local school districts and special programs focused on math and science curriculum. This funding is designated for the Department of Education's Division of Elementary and Secondary Education for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The funds will be disbursed in compliance with existing state laws and regulations, ensuring that all financial controls are adhered to during the allocation process.

Additionally, the bill includes an emergency clause that emphasizes the necessity for the appropriations to take effect on July 1, 2025. It states that the Constitution of Arkansas prohibits the appropriation of funds for more than one year, and any delay in the implementation of this act could adversely affect the operation of the agency responsible for these funds. The emergency declaration underscores the urgency of the bill to ensure the continued provision of essential governmental programs.
