Official title

Students Helping Young Students Act of 2015

Plain summary

Students Helping Young Students Act of 2015 Amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to require institutions of higher education (IHEs) that receive grants for federal work-study programs to use a portion of such funding to compensate students employed in the educational after-school, before-school, or out-of-school community service activities of public elementary or secondary schools. Requires the IHEs operating such work-study programs to give priority to public elementary or secondary schools serving low-income communities. Allows the federal share of the compensation provided to work-study students performing such community service to exceed 75%.
