An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in career and technical education, providing for governance of schools and institutes.

Summary

The bill adds a new section to the Public School Code that transfers administration of career and technical education schools and institutes to a governance board within three years.
