Good morning!

The Senate Education Appropriation Subcommittee Chairman’s Recommendation for Education funding for FY16-17 is as follows - http://flsenate.gov/PublishedContent/Committees/2014-2016/AED/MeetingRecords/MeetingPacket_3377.pdf

Gaetz put in his budget $10.2 million for the expansion of CAPE academies through a competitive grant process. One named area was manufacturing. This the first new money secondary has seem possibly directed their way.

Additionally included in his proposed budget:

$20 million for the Technical Center Rapid response competitive grant

$1.5 million increase in performance for industry certifications.

The proposed implementing bill and proviso language will come out on Thursday. The proviso language will have Gaetz requirements for grant submission.

Another interesting aspect of Senator Gaetz proposed budget is there are no line items for individual funded groups such as boy clubs, etc. He is recommending a competitive grant process.

We have not seen anything from the House yet.
