This bill expands the entities to which DPI must award grants for the purpose of providing services and activities to gifted and talented pupils to include all school districts. Under current law, DPI is required to provide these grants to nonprofit organizations, cooperative educational service agencies, institutions in the UW System, and a school district operating in a first class city.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
