Summary: The Senate Higher Education and Workforce Development Committee heard a work session on FAFSA and college access from the Washington Student Achievement Council. Staff described the Washington Completes FAFSA campaign created by Executive Order 2508, the advisory board guiding it, and efforts to modernize outreach through data tracking, trusted messengers, school partnerships, and tools like a completion dashboard and Otterbot texting service. WASAC reported a 35% year-over-year increase in FAFSA/WASFA completions, said it was about two-thirds of the way to its statewide completion goal, and discussed persistent equity gaps by free/reduced-price lunch status and race/ethnicity. Members also heard about the Changing the Narrative report and College Toolkit, which emphasize multiple postsecondary pathways, relatable messengers, and short video content. The committee then received a presentation on student support services at public baccalaureate institutions. The Council of Presidents said retention remains strong overall but varies by demographics and that FERPA limits parent access once students enroll, making campus support systems especially important. Speakers from Evergreen State College and Central Washington University described retention and success efforts such as the Shelton Promise program, basic-needs support, summer bridge, peer mentoring, text outreach, early academic alerts, embedded advising, and cross-trained student service centers. Both institutions said budget cuts are reducing advising, tutoring, wellness, and other student supports, which could affect persistence and completion. The committee also held a public hearing on gubernatorial appointments. Latasha Wortham testified in support of her reappointment to the Tacoma Community College Board of Trustees, and a panel of student appointees testified about their roles on various boards and councils, emphasizing student voice, equity, and access. In executive session, the committee adopted a proposed substitute for Senate Bill 6325 and voted it do pass to the Ways and Means Committee. The committee then recommended confirmation for gubernatorial appointments 9286, 9289, 9290, 9292, 9293, 9302, 9309, 9311, and 9312 before adjourning.

Summary: The committee began with a work session on the Workforce Education Investment Act (WEA) Oversight Board, hearing from Jane Broome of Microsoft Philanthropies and Joel Anderson of WASAC. They reviewed the history and purpose of the WEA account, emphasizing that it was created as a dedicated, non-supplanting source to expand higher education and workforce investments, especially high-demand fields and financial aid. Broome and Anderson said the board has improved with WASAC staffing and better data, but they raised strong concerns that recent budget actions, especially shifting $400 million in University of Washington general-fund support to WEA, violated the original partnership and undermined trust. Senators asked about AI-related workforce needs, data transparency, and how to define “supplanting,” and the presenters said the board wants to stop supplanting and preserve WEA for its intended purposes. The committee then held public hearings on three bills. SB 6251 would require public medical schools to use letter grades or a tiered grading system; the sponsor said it was intended to standardize grading, but both WSU and UW opposed it, arguing that pass-fail and competency-based systems better support collaboration, mental health, and residency placement, and that only a small share of U.S. medical schools use letter grades. SB 6259 would make students who are found by a court to have caused major damage to a public higher education institution ineligible for state aid and require repayment of aid; the sponsor framed it as accountability for serious vandalism, while the lone testifier from WSU student government opposed it as unfair to lower-income students and potentially chilling to free expression. The final hearing was on SB 6235, which would reverse the “fund split” approach and require the state to fully fund compensation and central services for higher education rather than relying on tuition to cover those costs, while also directing a study on essential student services. Nearly all testimony was in support, from university and community college leaders, faculty, and labor representatives, who said the current system has led to hidden cuts, reduced COLAs, layoffs, program closures, larger class sizes, and reduced student services. After the hearing, the committee moved into executive session and adopted proposed substitutes and passed SB 5978, SB 6209, SB 6217, and SB 6227 to the Ways and Means Committee; SB 6235 was not acted on. The committee then adjourned.

Summary: The committee began by waiving the five-day notice rule for Senate Bill 6320, then heard several education-related bills. Senate Bill 6222 would let school districts and educational service districts sell surplus technology hardware such as laptops and tablets to public school students at depreciated cost, or give them free to low-income students, with priority for low-income public school students. The sponsor and witnesses said the bill would help students keep access to devices for school, work, and college; one member asked whether tribal compact schools were included. Testimony was generally supportive. The committee then heard Senate Bill 6263, which raises school district public bid thresholds for purchases and repairs. The sponsor said the limits had not been updated in about 20 years and should be aligned with cities and ports to reduce costs and delays. School employees, finance officers, and coalition representatives supported the bill, saying current thresholds create unnecessary administrative burden and can slow maintenance and purchasing; the fiscal note showed no fiscal impact. The committee also heard Senate Bill 6261, which would require parents of six- and seven-year-olds not enrolled in school to file annual signed declarations of their education plans. The superintendent of public instruction supported the bill as a way to align Washington with other states and improve enrollment data, while homeschool parents, students, and advocacy groups strongly opposed it as burdensome, intrusive, and unnecessary. Senate Bill 6118 would require each school district to create cardiac emergency response plans for schools and athletic facilities, including AED placement, staff training, and coordination with emergency responders. The sponsor said the bill was personal because of her brother’s death from heart failure, and witnesses described sudden cardiac arrest incidents and argued that preparedness saves lives. The committee also heard Senate Bill 6320, which would restrict state-funded online and remote alternative learning experiences to public or nonprofit providers and reduce levy equalization for some remote ALE enrollment, with limited exceptions for medically fragile, severely ill, injured, or severely bullied students. Supporters said it would prevent privatization and better align funding with in-person schooling, while opponents said it would harm students who rely on online programs, especially those with special needs or other barriers to traditional school.
