Memorandum


Please identify any areas of vagueness, technical defects, reasons a bill would not have a fiscal impact, and/or any special issues not captured elsewhere on this form. WVDE is currently implementing these initiatives in some fashion. For example: GWC has been ongoing since 2016, the CTE Middle School "Discover Your Future" program will be fully implemented in the 2022-2023 school year, and the Classroom 2 Career Navigator website was launched as part of the Students' Right to Know Act of 2020.
