AI Generated Summary

This bill, presented in Minnesota, aims to adjust the funding formula for school transportation in districts where transportation costs are particularly high due to their sparse population. Specifically, it proposes increasing the transportation sparsity revenue, which is a form of financial support for districts with spread out student populations who face high transportation costs. The increase is calculated as 35-70% of the difference between certain costs related to pupil transportation from previous years and various other revenue and aid sources already received by the district. Additionally, the bill applies a similar financial adjustment formula to charter schools, aligning their transportation funding with that of other public school districts.
