The bill modifies existing education laws in Minnesota, specifically focusing on e-learning day requirements and the terms and conditions of employment for school employees. It amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 120A.414, subdivision 2, to allow school boards, including charter schools, to adopt e-learning day plans that must include accommodations for students lacking Internet access and digital devices. The bill also mandates that these plans provide accessible options for students with disabilities. The effective date for this section is set for July 1, 2025.

Additionally, the bill revises Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 179A.03, subdivision 19, by clarifying the definition of "terms and conditions of employment" for school employees. It specifies that this term does not include staffing ratios, which were previously included in the definition. The effective date for this change is also set for collective bargaining agreements effective July 1, 2025, and thereafter.
