Full-service community schools provisions modified, and money appropriated.

HF 1979 modifies Minnesota's full-service community schools program by appropriating funding and updating eligibility rules. It provides up to $100,000 per school for one year to plan community school programs (including hiring a site coordinator) and $200,000 annually for up to three years to implement these programs. Eligible schools must be on a continuous improvement plan or in a district with an approved achievement/integration plan, and districts serving multiple schools must hire a full-service initiative director. The bill requires schools to form leadership teams with parent/student representation and prioritizes funding for schools with high needs like free/reduced lunch eligibility or homelessness rates.
