Vermont H0089 proposes a school choice program allowing all students to attend their school of choice, funded by a School Choice Grant.

Vermont H0089 introduces a school choice program allowing all Vermont students to choose their school, regardless of residence. The program includes a School Choice Grant paid by the student's home district. The Joint Fiscal Office must report on integrating this program into Vermont's education funding structure. Public schools must accept students unless they lack capacity or resources, in which case they may use a lottery with sibling preference. Independent schools cannot decline students based on certain characteristics but may charge additional tuition beyond the grant.
