Appropriation; DFA for Knox Academy for costs of expanding its facilities.

HB 1866 allocates $2.5 million from the state general fund to Knox Academy in Ellisville for facility improvements, upgrades, and expansion during fiscal year 2027. The bill directly affects Knox Academy, a private K-3 through 6th grade Montessori school offering integrated therapy services for neurotypical and neurodivergent students. The funds are intended to cover costs associated with physical facility changes, with payments processed through the State Treasurer upon proper requisitions. This is a straightforward funding allocation, not a policy change, and it takes effect July 1, 2026.
