Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.)
WASHINGTON, D.C. (KELO.com) — Federal help in on the way for school funding.
U.S. Senators John Thune of South Dakota and Tina Smith of Minnesota introduced the Supplemental Impact Aid Flexibility Act, legislation that would allow school districts participating in the Impact Aid Program to use previously reported student headcounts on their Impact Aid applications for the 2022-2023 school year.
The bill would ensure that they do not need to recalculate federally connected students due to prolonged uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic.
