Illinois SB0044 establishes annual competitive grants for school districts to purchase electric vehicles for driver education courses.

Illinois SB0044 amends the School Code to create a program for annual competitive grants to school districts for purchasing electric vehicles for driver education courses. The State Board of Education will award these grants based on applications that include details such as the district's tier designation, student participation in driver education, current vehicle inventory, vehicle condition, and a maintenance plan for the electric vehicle. Priority will be given to districts without electric vehicles and those with insufficient vehicles to meet student demand.
