Minnesota SF133 expands allowable uses of student support personnel aid for education finance.

Minnesota SF133 amends the allowable uses of student support personnel aid to include hiring new positions or increasing service hours for existing positions. The aid can also maintain positions funded by federal COVID-19 relief acts. If a school district, charter school, or cooperative unit cannot hire new full-time equivalent positions, the aid may fund contracted services from licensed professionals. This change takes effect for revenue in fiscal year 2026 and later.
