125A.15 PLACEMENT IN ANOTHER DISTRICT; RESPONSIBILITY.

The responsibility for special instruction and services for a child with a disability
temporarily placed in another district for care and treatment shall be determined in the
following manner:

(a) The district of residence of a child shall be the district in which the child's parent
resides, if living, or the child's guardian. If there is a dispute between school districts
regarding residency, the district of residence is the district designated by the commissioner.

(b) If a district other than the resident district places a pupil for care and treatment, the
district placing the pupil must notify and give the resident district an opportunity to participate
in the placement decision. When an immediate emergency placement of a pupil is necessary
and time constraints foreclose a resident district from participating in the emergency
placement decision, the district in which the pupil is temporarily placed must notify the
resident district of the emergency placement within 15 days. The resident district has up to
five business days after receiving notice of the emergency placement to request an
opportunity to participate in the placement decision, which the placing district must then
provide.

(c) When a child is temporarily placed for care and treatment in a day program located
in another district and the child continues to live within the district of residence during the
care and treatment, the district of residence is responsible for providing transportation to
and from the care and treatment program and an appropriate educational program for the
child. The resident district may establish reasonable restrictions on transportation, except
if a Minnesota court or agency orders the child placed at a day care and treatment program
and the resident district receives a copy of the order, then the resident district must provide
transportation to and from the program unless the court or agency orders otherwise.
Transportation shall only be provided by the resident district during regular operating hours
of the resident district. The resident district may provide the educational program at a school
within the district of residence, at the child's residence, or in the district in which the day
treatment center is located by paying tuition to that district.new text begin A district or charter school may
utilize online learning under section 124D.095 to fulfill its educational program responsibility
under this chapter if the child, or the child's parent or guardian for a pupil under the age of
18, agrees to that form of instruction.
new text end

(d) When a child is temporarily placed in a residential program for care and treatment,
the nonresident district in which the child is placed is responsible for providing an appropriate
educational program for the child and necessary transportation while the child is attending
the educational program; and must bill the district of the child's residence for the actual cost
of providing the program, as outlined in section 125A.11, except as provided in paragraph
(e). However, the board, lodging, and treatment costs incurred in behalf of a child with a
disability placed outside of the school district of residence by the commissioner of human
services or the commissioner of corrections or their agents, for reasons other than providing
for the child's special educational needs must not become the responsibility of either the
district providing the instruction or the district of the child's residence. For the purposes of
this section, the state correctional facilities operated on a fee-for-service basis are considered
to be residential programs for care and treatment.new text begin A district or charter school may utilize
online learning under section 124D.095 to fulfill its educational program responsibility
under this chapter if the child, or the child's parent or guardian for a pupil under the age of
18, agrees to that form of instruction.
new text end

(e) A privately owned and operated residential facility may enter into a contract to obtain
appropriate educational programs for special education children and services with a joint
powers entity. The entity with which the private facility contracts for special education
services shall be the district responsible for providing students placed in that facility an
appropriate educational program in place of the district in which the facility is located. If a
privately owned and operated residential facility does not enter into a contract under this
paragraph, then paragraph (d) applies.

(f) The district of residence shall pay tuition and other program costs, not including
transportation costs, to the district providing the instruction and services. The district of
residence may claim general education aid for the child as provided by law. Transportation
costs must be paid by the district responsible for providing the transportation and the state
must pay transportation aid to that district.

Sec. 30.

Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 125A.51, is amended to read:


125A.51 PLACEMENT OF CHILDREN WITHOUT DISABILITIES; EDUCATION
AND TRANSPORTATION.

The responsibility for providing instruction and transportation for a pupil without a
disability who has a short-term or temporary physical or emotional illness or disability, as
determined by the standards of the commissioner, and who is temporarily placed for care
and treatment for that illness or disability, must be determined as provided in this section.

(a) The school district of residence of the pupil is the district in which the pupil's parent
or guardian resides. If there is a dispute between school districts regarding residency, the
district of residence is the district designated by the commissioner.

(b) When parental rights have been terminated by court order, the legal residence of a
child placed in a residential or foster facility for care and treatment is the district in which
the child resides.

(c) Before the placement of a pupil for care and treatment, the district of residence must
be notified and provided an opportunity to participate in the placement decision. When an
immediate emergency placement is necessary and time does not permit resident district
participation in the placement decision, the district in which the pupil is temporarily placed,
if different from the district of residence, must notify the district of residence of the
emergency placement within 15 days of the placement. When a nonresident district makes
an emergency placement without first consulting with the resident district, the resident
district has up to five business days after receiving notice of the emergency placement to
request an opportunity to participate in the placement decision, which the placing district
must then provide.

(d) When a pupil without a disability is temporarily placed for care and treatment in a
day program and the pupil continues to live within the district of residence during the care
and treatment, the district of residence must provide instruction and necessary transportation
to and from the care and treatment program for the pupil. The resident district may establish
reasonable restrictions on transportation, except if a Minnesota court or agency orders the
child placed at a day care and treatment program and the resident district receives a copy
of the order, then the resident district must provide transportation to and from the program
unless the court or agency orders otherwise. Transportation shall only be provided by the
resident district during regular operating hours of the resident district. The resident district
may provide the instruction at a school within the district of residence, at the pupil's residence,
new text begin through an online learning program under section 124D.095, provided by the pupil's resident
district, district of open enrollment under section 124D.03, or charter school of enrollment

district in which the day treatment program is located by paying tuition to that district. new text begin A
district or charter school may provide the instruction through an online learning program
if the pupil, or the pupil's parent or guardian for a pupil under the age of 18, agrees to that
form of instruction.
new text end The district of placement may contract with a facility to provide
instruction by teachers licensed by the Professional Educator Licensing and Standards
Board.

(e) When a pupil without a disability is temporarily placed in a residential program for
care and treatment, the district in which the pupil is placed must provide instruction for the
pupil and necessary transportation while the pupil is receiving instruction, and in the case
of a placement outside of the district of residence, the nonresident district must bill the
district of residence for the actual cost of providing the instruction for the regular school
year and for summer school, excluding transportation costs.new text begin A district or charter school may
utilize online learning under section 124D.095 to fulfill its educational program responsibility
under this chapter if the pupil, or the pupil's parent or guardian for a pupil under the age of
18, agrees to that form of instruction.
new text end

(f) Notwithstanding paragraph (e), if the pupil is homeless and placed in a public or
private homeless shelter, then the district that enrolls the pupil under section 120A.20,
subdivision 2
, paragraph (b), shall provide the transportation, unless the district that enrolls
the pupil and the district in which the pupil is temporarily placed agree that the district in
which the pupil is temporarily placed shall provide transportation. When a pupil without a
disability is temporarily placed in a residential program outside the district of residence,
the administrator of the court placing the pupil must send timely written notice of the
placement to the district of residence. The district of placement may contract with a
residential facility to provide instruction by teachers licensed by the Professional Educator
Licensing and Standards Board. For purposes of this section, the state correctional facilities
operated on a fee-for-service basis are considered to be residential programs for care and
treatment.

(g) The district of residence must include the pupil in its residence count of pupil units
and pay tuition as provided in section 123A.488 to the district providing the instruction.
Transportation costs must be paid by the district providing the transportation and the state
must pay transportation aid to that district. For purposes of computing state transportation
aid, pupils governed by this subdivision must be included in the disabled transportation
category if the pupils cannot be transported on a regular school bus route without special
accommodations.

Sec. 22.

Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 120B.30, subdivision 1, is amended to read:


Subdivision 1.

Statewide testing.

(a) The commissioner, with advice from experts with
appropriate technical qualifications and experience and stakeholders, consistent with
subdivision 1a, must include in the comprehensive assessment system, for each grade level
to be tested, state-constructed tests developed as computer-adaptive reading and mathematics
assessments for students that are aligned with the state's required academic standards under
section 120B.021, include multiple choice questions, and are administered annually to all
students in grades 3 through 8. State-developed high school tests aligned with the state's
required academic standards under section 120B.021 and administered to all high school
students in a subject other than writing must include multiple choice questions. The
commissioner must establish a testing period as late as possible each school year during
which schools must administer the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments to students. The
commissioner must publish the testing schedule at least two years before the beginning of
the testing period.

(b) The state assessment system must be aligned to the most recent revision of academic
standards as described in section 120B.023 in the following manner:

(1) mathematics;

(i) grades 3 through 8 beginning in the 2010-2011 school year; and

(ii) high school level beginning in the 2013-2014 school year;

(2) science; grades 5 and 8 and at the high school level beginning in the 2011-2012
school year; and

(3) language arts and reading; grades 3 through 8 and high school level beginning in the
2012-2013 school year.

(c) For students enrolled in grade 8 in the 2012-2013 school year and later, students'
state graduation requirements, based on a longitudinal, systematic approach to student
education and career planning, assessment, instructional support, and evaluation, include
the following:

(1) achievement and career and college readiness in mathematics, reading, and writing,
consistent with paragraph (k) and to the extent available, to monitor students' continuous
development of and growth in requisite knowledge and skills; analyze students' progress
and performance levels, identifying students' academic strengths and diagnosing areas where
students require curriculum or instructional adjustments, targeted interventions, or
remediation; and, based on analysis of students' progress and performance data, determine
students' learning and instructional needs and the instructional tools and best practices that
support academic rigor for the student; and

(2) consistent with this paragraph and section 120B.125, age-appropriate exploration
and planning activities and career assessments to encourage students to identify personally
relevant career interests and aptitudes and help students and their families develop a regularly
reexamined transition plan for postsecondary education or employment without need for
postsecondary remediation.

Based on appropriate state guidelines, students with an individualized education program
may satisfy state graduation requirements by achieving an individual score on the
state-identified alternative assessments.

(d) Expectations of schools, districts, and the state for career or college readiness under
this subdivision must be comparable in rigor, clarity of purpose, and rates of student
completion.

A student under paragraph (c), clause (1), must receive targeted, relevant, academically
rigorous, and resourced instruction, which may include a targeted instruction and intervention
plan focused on improving the student's knowledge and skills in core subjects so that the
student has a reasonable chance to succeed in a career or college without need for
postsecondary remediation. Consistent with sections 120B.13, 124D.09, 124D.091, 124D.49,
and related sections, an enrolling school or district must actively encourage a student in
grade 11 or 12 who is identified as academically ready for a career or college to participate
in courses and programs awarding college credit to high school students. Students are not
required to achieve a specified score or level of proficiency on an assessment under this
subdivision to graduate from high school.

(e) Though not a high school graduation requirement, students are encouraged to
participate in a nationally recognized college entrance exam. To the extent state funding
for college entrance exam fees is available, a district must pay the cost, one time, for an
interested student in grade 11 or 12 who is eligible for a free or reduced-price meal, to take
a nationally recognized college entrance exam before graduating. A student must be able
to take the exam under this paragraph at the student's high school during the school day and
at any one of the multiple exam administrations available to students in the district. A district
may administer the ACT or SAT or both the ACT and SAT to comply with this paragraph.
If the district administers only one of these two tests and a free or reduced-price meal eligible
student opts not to take that test and chooses instead to take the other of the two tests, the
student may take the other test at a different time or location and remains eligible for the
examination fee reimbursement. Notwithstanding sections 123B.34 to 123B.39, a school
district may require a student that is not eligible for a free or reduced-price meal to pay the
cost of taking a nationally recognized college entrance exam. The district must waive the
cost for a student unable to pay.

(f) The commissioner and the chancellor of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities
must collaborate in aligning instruction and assessments for adult basic education students
and English learners to provide the students with diagnostic information about any targeted
interventions, accommodations, modifications, and supports they need so that assessments
and other performance measures are accessible to them and they may seek postsecondary
education or employment without need for postsecondary remediation. When administering
formative or summative assessments used to measure the academic progress, including the
oral academic development, of English learners and inform their instruction, schools must
ensure that the assessments are accessible to the students and students have the modifications
and supports they need to sufficiently understand the assessments.

(g) Districts and schools, on an annual basis, must use career exploration elements to
help students, beginning no later than grade 9, and their families explore and plan for
postsecondary education or careers based on the students' interests, aptitudes, and aspirations.
Districts and schools must use timely regional labor market information and partnerships,
among other resources, to help students and their families successfully develop, pursue,
review, and revise an individualized plan for postsecondary education or a career. This
process must help increase students' engagement in and connection to school, improve
students' knowledge and skills, and deepen students' understanding of career pathways as
a sequence of academic and career courses that lead to an industry-recognized credential,
an associate's degree, or a bachelor's degree and are available to all students, whatever their
interests and career goals.

(h) A student who demonstrates attainment of required state academic standards, which
include career and college readiness benchmarks, on high school assessments under
subdivision 1a is academically ready for a career or college and is encouraged to participate
in courses awarding college credit to high school students. Such courses and programs may
include sequential courses of study within broad career areas and technical skill assessments
that extend beyond course grades.

(i) As appropriate, students through grade 12 must continue to participate in targeted
instruction, intervention, or remediation and be encouraged to participate in courses awarding
college credit to high school students.

(j) In developing, supporting, and improving students' academic readiness for a career
or college, schools, districts, and the state must have a continuum of empirically derived,
clearly defined benchmarks focused on students' attainment of knowledge and skills so that
students, their parents, and teachers know how well students must perform to have a
reasonable chance to succeed in a career or college without need for postsecondary
remediation. The commissioner, in consultation with local school officials and educators,
and Minnesota's public postsecondary institutions must ensure that the foundational
knowledge and skills for students' successful performance in postsecondary employment
or education and an articulated series of possible targeted interventions are clearly identified
and satisfy Minnesota's postsecondary admissions requirements.

(k) For students in grade 8 in the 2012-2013 school year and later, a school, district, or
charter school must record on the high school transcript a student's progress toward career
and college readiness, and for other students as soon as practicable.

(l) The school board granting students their diplomas may formally decide to include a
notation of high achievement on the high school diplomas of those graduating seniors who,
according to established school board criteria, demonstrate exemplary academic achievement
during high school.

(m) The 3rd through 8th grade computer-adaptive assessment results and high school
test results must be available to districts for diagnostic purposes affecting student learning
and district instruction and curriculum, and for establishing educational accountability. The
commissioner, in consultation with the chancellor of the Minnesota State Colleges and
Universities, must establish empirically derived benchmarks on the high school tests that
reveal a trajectory toward career and college readiness consistent with section 136F.302,
subdivision 1a. The commissioner must disseminate to the public the computer-adaptive
assessments and high school test results upon receiving those results.

(n) The grades 3 through 8 computer-adaptive assessments and high school tests must
be aligned with state academic standards. The commissioner must determine the testing
process and the order of administration. The statewide results must be aggregated at the site
and district level, consistent with subdivision 1a.

(o) The commissioner must include the following components in the statewide public
reporting system:

(1) uniform statewide computer-adaptive assessments of all students in grades 3 through
8 and testing at the high school levels that provides appropriate, technically sound
accommodations or alternate assessments;

(2) educational indicators that can be aggregated and compared across school districts
and across time on a statewide basis, including deleted text begin average dailydeleted text end new text begin consistentnew text end attendance, high
school graduation rates, and high school drop-out rates by age and grade level;

(3) state results on the deleted text begin American College Testdeleted text end new text begin ACT testnew text end ; and

(4) state results from participation in the National Assessment of Educational Progress
so that the state can benchmark its performance against the nation and other states, and,
where possible, against other countries, and contribute to the national effort to monitor
achievement.

(p) For purposes of statewide accountability, "career and college ready" means a high
school graduate has the knowledge, skills, and competencies to successfully pursue a career
pathway, including postsecondary credit leading to a degree, diploma, certificate, or
industry-recognized credential and employment. Students who are career and college ready
are able to successfully complete credit-bearing coursework at a two- or four-year college
or university or other credit-bearing postsecondary program without need for remediation.

(q) For purposes of statewide accountability, "cultural competence," "cultural
competency," or "culturally competent" means the ability of families and educators to
interact effectively with people of different cultures, native languages, and socioeconomic
backgrounds.
