Charting My Path for Future Success Act

This bill tells the U.S. Department of Education to quickly restart and award a contract for the “Charting My Path for Future Success” project. The project trains teachers to help high school students with disabilities set goals, make action plans, and check their progress so they can succeed in school and in life. The contract cannot be canceled unless Congress approves it.

Key points:

• Who is affected: High school students with disabilities, their families, and the educators who support them.
• What changes: The Department must reissue and award the project’s contract as if it hadn’t been awarded before; the contract cannot be canceled without Congress.
• When: Within 90 days after the bill becomes law.
• Scale noted: After earlier training, 61 educators were helping about 1,600 students across 62 high schools in 13 districts, showing how the project is used in real schools.
