This bill amends the Revised School Code of 1976 by adding a new section, 1310g, which mandates that starting with the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, the Michigan legislature must appropriate funds annually to public schools specifically to support at-risk pupils, as defined in section 31a of the state school aid act of 1979.

The bill stipulates that the amount allocated to each public school under this new section will be equal to 35% of the foundation allowance that the school receives under section 20 of the state school aid act of 1979 for the fiscal year in which the funds are appropriated. This provision aims to ensure that at-risk students receive adequate financial support to enhance their educational opportunities.
