From the funds provided in Specific Appropriation 59, $39,000,000 is
hereby appropriated in the Supplemental Academic Instruction Allocation
to assist 3rd and 12th grade students who have not yet mastered the
necessary skills for promotion or graduation.  These funds shall be used

legislation in Special Session A of 2003 that requires a portion of the

amount of special depreciation allowance provided for by the Job
Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 be added to adjusted federal
income for Florida corporate income tax purposes, and providing a credit
for this addition in future years, becoming a law.
