Key points
New grants for magnet schools to promote integration and diversity, including for schools that have not previously received support.
Support for schools in creating programs that embed diversity into the school's mission and structure, and in providing free transportation for low-income students.
Requirement for fair enrollment practices, such as weighted lotteries, to ensure equitable access to magnet schools for all students.
