The West Virginia Legislature finds that parents of children throughout any age in middle or high school should be given the utmost support, because they face a unique set of challenges and circumstances on their road to graduation. School systems in West Virginia shall implement programs to provide educational support to those students with children at any age through graduation. The goal of this act is to assist these students to stay in school while providing enough time for proper medical recovery after the birth of the child.
