Public high schools required to participate in the direct admissions program.

HF 1128 requires all Minnesota public high school districts and charter schools to participate in the state's direct admissions program starting with the 2029-2030 school year. The law, effective July 1, 2025, mandates that schools must enroll students through this program rather than traditional application processes. It directly affects every public high school in Minnesota by changing how they admit students. The bill does not alter the program's existing structure but makes participation mandatory for all eligible schools.
