Independent School District No. 186, Pequot Lakes, PSEO adjustment provided, and money appropriated.

HF 1967 provides a $2,026 payment to Independent School District No. 186 in Pequot Lakes to correct an underpayment of general education aid. The adjustment addresses a funding reduction that occurred in fiscal years 2024 and 2025 due to conflicting information about students enrolled in the Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) program. The Department of Education must calculate the exact amount of lost aid from PSEO enrollment rules and pay it to the school district in fiscal year 2026. This ensures the district receives the full funding it was entitled to under state education finance rules.
