HB 2038 -- Missouri Senior Cadets Program

Sponsor:  Moore

This bill establishes the Missouri Senior Cadets Program for
college-bound high school seniors with a grade point average of
at least 3.0.  Public high schools will establish cadet programs
in which the cadets will assist kindergarten through eighth grade
students with their educational needs for at least 10 hours a
week.  Successful cadets will get an hour of elective credit to
be applied to their high school graduation and may, if they
attend college to become a teacher, be reimbursed by the
Department of Elementary and Secondary Education for the cost of
three credit hours per semester for no more than eight semesters.

The Missouri Senior Cadets Fund is created and will consist of
all moneys appropriated, gifts, contributions, grants, or
bequests which are to be used solely for tuition reimbursements
under this program.
