2013 House Bill 4295: Adjust school budget projections, appropiate extra money

To make adjustments to the school aid budget for the current fiscal year to reflect lower than expected student counts, and appropriate extra money for various purposes, including a $51.7 federal "early learning challenge grant" the state applied for. This will pay for government programs that are "culturally, linguistically, and developmentally appropriate...for high-needs children from birth to kindergarten entry" and that "promote children’s physical, social, and emotional health" among other things; training for employees who perform these activities; monitoring systems and more. The bill also authorizes a student nutrition and behavior tracking software program for schools. It appropriates $5 million for transition costs related to dissolving the fiscally failed Buena Vista and Inkster school districts; $2 million for a year-round school pilot program; $3.9 million for contracts to provide students "information technology education opportunities; and more.
