The bill aims to enhance educational opportunities for military children by amending section 1003.05 of the Florida Statutes. It requires the Department of Education to develop and implement a training module focused on facilitating the transfer of K-12 education records for students coming from out-of-state schools. This training module is to be provided to each district school board, which must then ensure that it is made available to all public and charter K-12 schools within their jurisdiction.

Additionally, the bill mandates that district school boards offer this training to employees who work directly with military students and their families. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2025. The amendments emphasize the importance of supporting military families during their transition to Florida schools, ensuring that educational processes are streamlined and accessible.
