Student support personnel aid increase

This bill increases funding for student support personnel in Minnesota schools by adjusting the per-student allowance and minimum funding thresholds for independent, special, and charter school districts. It raises the base student support personnel allowance from $30.05 to $48.73 for fiscal year 2026 and establishes a minimum funding floor of $40,000 for most districts, while charter schools receive a $20,000 minimum. The legislation also appropriates specific state funds for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to cover these increased costs and requires districts to reserve aid in fund balances to prevent future reductions.
