    INTRODUCTION

    ## Legislative bill overview

    This bill aims to create an incentives program to encourage high schools to help more graduating seniors demonstrate college, career, and military readiness. It does this by providing financial bonuses to schools based on year-over-year increases in readiness rates.

    ## Why is this important

    Helping high school graduates achieve college and career readiness is a crucial goal as it can lead to better economic and life outcomes. This bill seeks to incentivize schools to focus on this.

    ## Potential points of contention


    • Determining appropriate readiness criteria and bonus amounts

    • Ensuring schools serve all students equitably, not just those nearing readiness thresholds

    • Finding sufficient funds for potentially costly bonuses without detriment to other programs

    • Measuring year-over-year improvement rates accurately and fairly
