Charter school general education revenue calculation clarified.

HF 1048 clarifies how Minnesota calculates general education funding for charter schools to align their payment method with traditional school districts. The bill adjusts the formula to include specific local aid allowances while consistently accounting for factors like declining enrollment revenue, which was previously excluded but now added back. Charter schools offering extended programs (such as extended day, week, or summer) will receive an additional 25% of the statewide average extended time revenue per student. Special education charter schools also gain extra funding for non-special education students based on their unreimbursed costs, as defined by existing law.
