Renames the "Public School Health Center Support Program" to the "School-Based Health Center Support Program" and redefines "school health center" as a student-focused health center organized through school, community, and health provider relationships that provides age-appropriate clinical health care services onsite by qualified health professionals.

Requires the State Department of Public Health, in collaboration with the Office of School-Based Health Programs in the State Department of Education, to award grant funding on or before January 1, 2026, for planning, facilities/startup, expansion, and sustainability of school-based health centers.

Establishes four grant categories with specified funding amounts: planning grants ($50,000-$100,000 for up to 24 months), facilities/startup grants ($300,000-$850,000 annually for three years), expansion grants ($150,000-$300,000 for up to three years), and sustainability grants ($150,000-$300,000 annually ongoing).

Prioritizes grant funding for school-based health centers serving schools with more than 55% unduplicated pupils, federally medically underserved areas, areas with health professional shortages, or areas experiencing health disparities in child and adolescent access to primary care, behavioral health, preventive health, or oral health services.

Requires school-based health centers receiving state funding to report data to the State Department of Public Health and eliminates the requirement for the department to collect data on health services provided outside of school health centers.
