The bill amends the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program by adding a new requirement for public high schools to establish a mentorship program specifically for students enrolled in the school. This mentorship program is designed to provide students with access to a certified school counselor who will inform them about the eligibility requirements for various Florida Bright Futures Scholarship awards. Additionally, the program must include a comprehensive outreach campaign utilizing social media and the school's website to share success stories, application tips, and host Q&A sessions for students and parents. Furthermore, the program may connect students with mentors who have previously received awards through the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program.

The new legal language added to section 1009.53 includes specific requirements for the mentorship program, such as the provision of access to a school counselor and the outreach campaign. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
