A bill to provide for adequate school facilities in Yosemite National Park, and for other purposes.

SECTION 1. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) the 3 elementary schools available for the children of 
        employees of Yosemite National Park are administered by the 
        Bass Lake Joint Union Elementary School District and the 
        Mariposa Unified School District;
            (2) the elementary schools are in remote mountainous areas 
        that are long distances from other educational and 
        administrative facilities of the local school districts;
            (3) because of the remote locations of and relatively small 
        number of students at the elementary schools serving the 
        children of employees of the Park, the elementary schools 
        provide fewer services in more basic facilities than other 
        schools located in the local school districts; and
            (4) because of the long distances involved and adverse 
        weather and road conditions that occur during much of the 
        school year, it is impractical for the children of employees of 
        the Park who live in or near the Park to attend other schools 
        located in the local school districts.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to authorize the Secretary 
of the Interior to provide supplemental funding and other services that 
are necessary to assist the State of California or local educational 
agencies in the State in providing educational services for students 
attending schools located in Yosemite National Park.
