Summary
The bill adds a new section to West Virginia law that directs the Hope Scholarship Program Fund to pay county education boards for students who qualify for a Hope Scholarship but are not enrolled in a public school and choose not to accept the scholarship. The payment equals the amount the county would have received if the student had attended a public school, helping counties offset lost funding.
