This bill amends existing legislation regarding the funding and reporting requirements for the aeronautics and commercial over-the-road technical program in Independent School District No. 482, Little Falls. It clarifies that the funds allocated for this program can be used for various expenses, including equipment, staffing, travel, and contracted services. Additionally, it mandates that by February 1, 2027, the district must provide a report to legislative committees detailing the program's activities, participation demographics, partnerships, and recommendations for enhancing similar programs statewide.

Notably, the bill introduces new provisions stating that the district's early expenditures for the program, incurred after May 24, 2023, will be considered eligible for reimbursement from the grant. Furthermore, it requires the report to include an assessment of how these early expenditures contributed to the timely delivery of the program to students. The effective date of these amendments is retroactively set to May 24, 2023.
