Mission modification of the Minnesota math corps program

SF 1323 modifies the mission of Minnesota's Math Corps program, which provides math instruction support to elementary and middle school students and teachers through ServeMinnesota AmeriCorps members. The bill requires the program to use a "data-based problem-solving model" for instructional support, focusing on foundational math skills to meet state standards and workforce expectations. It appropriates $2 million for fiscal year 2026 and $1 million for 2027 (with unused 2026 funds rolling over to 2027) to support the program. The bill also mandates a biennial report to education committees evaluating the program's effectiveness in accelerating student learning.
