The bill modifies the responsibilities of school district boards of trustees in Wyoming regarding access to postsecondary education for high school students. Specifically, it mandates that these boards, in collaboration with the University of Wyoming and other accredited postsecondary institutions, ensure that eligible students have access to programs that provide a minimum of twelve (12) postsecondary credit hours. This requirement applies to students in grades nine (9) through twelve (12).

The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2025. The changes aim to enhance educational opportunities for high school students by facilitating their participation in postsecondary education programs, thereby promoting a smoother transition from high school to higher education.
