| Description of Provision | Senate SF1328 3rd engrossment 4/7 | House HF2 1st committee engrossment 4/16 |
| 123B.42 This section would be a savings for the state budget by eliminating non-public school textbook aid for schools with less than 15 students; essentially homeschools. | Art. 1 Sec. 7 | None |
| 123B.42 & 123B.44 This section would be a savings for the state budget by eliminating non-public school health and guidance counseling aid for schools with less than 15 students; essentially homeschools. The first two sections save the state $1.389 million. | Art. 1 Sec. 8 | None |
| 120A.22 subdivisions 11 Reduces the burden on superintendents with regard to the oversight of the national norm-referenced standardized achievement examination process. It also allows families to use the ACT and SAT to meet this requirement. The changes also remove arbitrary statutory requirements regarding the battery scores. | Art. 2 Sec. 1 | None |
| 120A.24 These changes would simply require a parent to notify the school district once as opposed to annually and remove the needless reporting requirement of report cards and calendars. Districts will still receive all other information they received in the past regarding the homeschool students and be able to work cooperatively with the families by offering services. The changes would give the superintendent more time to submit the required report to MDE and simplifies the information to be reported. The new language in this section would require students enrolling full-time in public school to report past test scores and provide documentation for appropriate placement. | Art. 2 Sec. 3 | None |
| 121A.15 The school district will still maintain immunization records on homeschool families, but homeschool families only need to submit their immunization records when they initially report homeschooling of a child at age 7 and then later when the child reaches grade 7. These are the two points of reference used by the Department of Health to determine if a child's immunization records are up-to-date. (Language is identical in both House and Senate bills.) | Art. 2 Sec. 23 | Art. 2 Sec. 14 |
| 171.05, 171.17 & 171.22 These sections remove the requirement that the superintendent certify that a student is homeschooled when doing the classroom portion of the driver's education through DPS. If a parent provides false information to the DPS they are subject to penalties. (Language is identical in both House and Senate bills.) | Art. 2 Sec. 85, 86 & 87 | Art. 2 Sec. 58, 59 & 60 |
| 181A.05 This section would allow parents and private school administrators, instead of the superintendent, to provide employers with the needed employment certificate for minors ages 14 and 15 working during school hours. (Language is identical in both House and Senate bills.) | Art. 2 Sec. 88 | Art. 2 Sec. 61 |
| 120A.26, subdivisions 1 and 2 Repeals the provision allowing superintendents one annual on-site visit of unaccredited schools. | Art. 2 Sec. 97 | None |
