Minnesota Young Readers Club program for literacy support created, funding provided to implement program and contract for reading materials, report required, and money appropriated.
HF 2322 creates the Minnesota Young Readers Club program to provide monthly book deliveries to prekindergarten through grade 5 students reading below grade level. The program delivers culturally relevant, age-appropriate books directly to students' homes or schools at least once monthly, along with family support materials in home languages. It requires schools to identify eligible students through universal screening, state assessments, or teacher recommendations, and partners with an external organization for book selection and distribution. The bill appropriates state funds for implementation, book contracts, and reporting to the Department of Education.
