Summary: The Senate Committee on Education Pre-K through 12 considered three bills. SB 1318, relating to the Florida tax credit scholarship program, made a technical clarification that any remaining funds in a closed scholarship account revert but do not revert to the state; it passed favorably without debate. The committee then took up CS for SB 1690 on child care and early learning services, which updates child care laws, improves transparency and accountability, and clarifies rulemaking authority through an adopted amendment shifting rulemaking language to the State Board of Education. During discussion, Senator Berman raised a question about removing a parent-notification requirement related to leaving children in vehicles, and the sponsor agreed to follow up. The committee reported the bill favorably after the amendment was adopted. The committee also considered SB 182 on school teacher training and mentoring programs. A strike-all amendment aligned the bill with the House companion and narrowed mentor placements to D- and F-rated schools, expanded participation to districts and charter schools, tightened mentor qualifications, authorized stipends up to $3,000, and allowed use of educational enrichment allocation funds. Two appearance forms were filed in support, and the bill was reported favorably after the amendment was adopted. At the end of the meeting, the chair thanked staff and recognized Kathy Missouri for her last committee meeting, with members applauding her service. Senators later requested to be recorded as voting in the affirmative on the bills, and the committee adjourned.
