Allow 11th and 12th graders to skip high school for college

Introduced in the House

May 29, 2007

Introduced by Rep. Jacob Hoogendyk (R-61)

To allow students who have completed half the credits required to graduate from high school to enroll full-time in a state college or university, including a community college, with the state paying up to $1,750 per semester. Since the student would not be enrolled in a public school district, the state would save the minimum $7,100 per-pupil annual K-12 foundation grant.

Referred to the Committee on Education
