I believe that this bill is a step in the right direction for helping high-need students succeed in their education. By providing grants for evidence-based programs, we can increase participation, retention, and completion rates for these students. It is important to invest in the future of our youth and ensure that all students have the support they need to succeed. This bill will benefit not only the students themselves, but also our society as a whole by creating a more educated and skilled workforce.
