HB 98: Curriculum Choice
2007 General Session

Sponsor: Joint Education Interim Committee

Wyoming high school students who wish to be eligible for Hathaway scholarships must complete the success curriculum as defined by HB 97. HB 98 would have established the success curriculum as the default course of study for high school students. If HB 98 had passed, students and their parents would have had the option to choose a less rigorous curriculum, but would have to have been fully informed about the consequences of that choice and to have signed a written waiver acknowledging the consequences on eligibility for Hathaway and other scholarship opportunities.

The House Education Committee defeated HB 98, but since legislative rules do not require recording committee votes to kill a bill, no record exists of how individual committee members voted.
