HB 48-AK PERFORMANCE SCHOLARSHIP; ELIGIBILITY 8:06:17 AM CO-CHAIR DRUMMOND announced that the first order of business would be SPONSOR SUBSTITUTE FOR HOUSE BILL NO. 48, "An Act relating to the Alaska performance scholarship program." CO-CHAIR DRUMMOND reviewed that when the committee last heard SSHB 48 [on 4/12 and 4/28/21], it heard invited and public testimony. [The sponsor substitute was introduced on the House floor on 2/22/22.] 8:06:48 AM CO-CHAIR STORY, as prime sponsor of SSHB 48, presented a letter of support for the bill [included in the committee packet] from Juneau School District member Carin Smolin. She stated Ms. Smolin's letter summarizes the changes the proposed bill makes to the Alaska Performance Scholarship (APS) as follows: creates rigorous courses for career and technical education; removes college entry exams; increases award amounts to help APS remain competitive; extends APS to eight years; and gives junior year students access to information to keep them on track to receive scholarships. She stated the purpose of the legislation is to enable students to choose education in Alaska and grow the state's workforce. She announced that Sana Efird is available for questions. 8:08:47 AM SANA EFIRD, in response to a question from Representative Cronk, stated that current statute allows six years for an APS recipient to utilize the grant. She continued that SSHB 48 would change the time limit to eight years. CO-CHAIR STORY commented that in Alaska many nontraditional students go to work right after high school. The bill offers students [who were granted an APS] the opportunities to gain work experience and credentials and then return to their education. 8:10:12 AM CO-CHAIR DRUMMOND announced that SSHB 48 was held over.
