New bill introduced to streamline high school to Cerritos College enrollment for students

Assemblymember José Luis Solache introduced Assembly Bill 1636, the Cerritos College Seamless Enrollment Act, to create a pilot program that simplifies the transition from high school to community college. The bill enables Cerritos Community College District to automatically generate "ready-to-enroll" records for graduating seniors using existing K-12 data. This initiative aims to eliminate barriers for first-generation and low-income students while maintaining their choice to attend college, building on the success of the Cerritos Complete Promise Program.
