Eliminates private school as an option under the Opportunity Scholarship Program; scholarships now apply only to attendance at higher-performing public schools.

Changes eligibility requirements to target schools with performance grades of "D" or "F" that are in the two lowest-performing categories, removing the previous standard of 2 school years of low performance in a 4-year period.

Requires opportunity scholarships to remain in force until a student graduates from high school, providing continuity of educational choice.

Removes all provisions related to private school participation, eligibility requirements, funding calculations, and payment procedures that are no longer applicable.

Allows students assigned to low-performing schools to transfer to higher-performing public schools within their district or in any other district in the state, with transportation costs covered by the school district.
