Minnesota HF2181 expands eligibility for special education separate sites funding and appropriates money.

Minnesota HF2181 amends state statutes to expand eligibility for special education separate sites funding. It allows additional state funding for every kindergarten through grade 12 child with a disability served in a special education separate site or program. The bill appropriates money from the general fund to the Department of Education for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. This funding can be used for the same purposes as state special education aid. The changes are effective for aid for fiscal year 2026 and later.
