Plain-language summary

Beta

This bill would expand the Kentucky Education Excellence Scholarship, known as KEES, to cover students who attend one of the five federal military service academies, such as West Point or the Air Force Academy. Currently, KEES funds can only be used at certain approved schools, and the academies are not among them. The change would take effect only if each academy enters into a formal agreement with the Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority. Who it may affect: Kentucky high school students who earn KEES scholarships and choose to attend a federal military service academy.
