The proposed bill would amend section 15-2403 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a requirement for the department to provide clear information regarding the legal rights that students and parents waive when enrolling in the Arizona empowerment scholarship accounts program. Specifically, the bill mandates that this notice be prominently posted on the department's website and included in each application packet, ensuring that applicants are fully informed of their rights prior to enrollment.
Aside from this new insertion, the current law regarding the application process, enrollment timelines, and funding estimates for the Arizona empowerment scholarship accounts remains unchanged. The bill does not propose any deletions to the existing statutes, thereby maintaining the current framework while enhancing transparency for prospective participants in the program.
