        AN  ACT  to amend the education law, in relation to career and technical
          education  courses  provided  by  boards  of  cooperative  educational
          services

          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:

     1    Section 1. Legislative findings. The  legislature  hereby  finds  that
     2  career  and  technical  education courses operated by a board of cooper-
     3  ative educational services provide unique educational and career  oppor-
     4  tunities  for  students.  Students  from local districts should have the
     5  opportunity to enroll in such courses offered by boards  of  cooperative
     6  educational  services.  Therefore,  it  is  in the best interests of the
     7  students in each local district to apply and, if accepted, to enroll  in
     8  career  and  technical  education programs operated by boards of cooper-
     9  ative educational services without prior approval from the  local  board
    10  of education.
    11    §  2.  Section  4602  of  the education law is amended by adding a new
    12  subdivision 6 to read as follows:
    13    6. Each board of cooperative educational services shall be  authorized
    14  to enroll students from each local school district in career and techni-
    15  cal education courses if such students are accepted to such courses.
    16    § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
