Certain graduation requirements for international baccalaureate program students waiver provision

This bill allows Minnesota school districts and charter schools to waive specific graduation credit requirements for students enrolled in International Baccalaureate programs. Starting in the 2026-2027 school year, eligible students who are on track to complete their IB diploma or career-related program can receive these waivers if the school determines that requiring the credits would prevent them from pursuing their IB studies. The waiver is granted upon parental application and can be revoked if a student is not on track by the start of grade 12, at which point they must complete the originally required credits.
