The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 124D.81, subdivision 2b, by removing the requirement for the American Indian Parent Advisory Committee to concur for a school district to receive American Indian education aid. This change allows districts and Tribal contract schools to carry forward and utilize unspent American Indian education aid without needing the committee's approval, streamlining the process for fund allocation.

Additionally, the bill maintains the stipulation that districts must still adhere to their approved plans and report to the Department of Education regarding the unspent funds. The amendment aims to provide greater flexibility for school districts in managing their American Indian education resources while ensuring accountability through reporting requirements.
