126.23 Aid for contracted alternative programs.

Subdivision 1. Aid. If a pupil enrolls in an alternative program, eligible under section 126.22, subdivision 3, paragraph (d), or subdivision 3a, operated by a private organization that has contracted with a school district to provide educational services for eligible pupils under section 126.22, subdivision 2, the district contracting with the private organization must reimburse the provider an amount equal to at least 90 percent of the district's average general education less compensatory revenue per pupil unit times the number of pupil units for pupils attending the program. Compensatory revenue must be allocated according to section 124A.28, subdivision 1a. For a pupil attending the program part time, the revenue paid to the program shall be reduced proportionately, according to the amount of time the pupil attends the program, and revenue paid to the district shall be reduced accordingly. Pupils for whom a district provides reimbursement may not be counted by the district for any purpose other than computation of general education revenue. If payment is made to a district or program for a pupil under this section, the department of children, families, and learning shall not make a payment for the same pupil under section 126.22, subdivision 8.

Subd. 2. Reserve account. During the term of the contract to provide educational services under subdivision 1, all state aid under subdivision 1 accrues to the account assigned to the alternative program site and is reserved for that site.
