What the local records say

Maple River homeschool nonpublic-aid reimbursement

What the record says: Maple River states that resident homeschool families may request reimbursement for qualifying materials and may request district-delivered health and secondary guidance services through the nonpublic-aid forms.

Amount or support: $138.43 current Minnesota Department of Education FY27 reference rate per eligible full-time K-12 student for textbooks, standardized tests, and individualized instructional materials; health and secondary guidance services use separate rates. This is a capped, receipt-based process, not an unrestricted education account.

How to read it: Published amount, formula, credit, or transportation reference. The mapped local area is Maple River School District.

Conditions to verify:

• The family must submit the Minnesota Student Report for Aids to Nonpublic Students by the district's published deadline, generally October 1.
• Materials must satisfy Minnesota's secular, neutral, nonideological, individual-use, public-school-availability, and current-year rules; receipts and proof of payment are required.
• The MDE rate is a maximum reference amount. The district approves eligible items and may issue a check, purchase materials, or pay a provider under the current process.
• Maple River's page contains mixed receipt date language and lists an April 1, 2027 or April 30, 2027 deadline in different sections; confirm the controlling deadline with the district.
• The health and guidance reference amounts are paid to the district for delivered services, not automatically to the homeschool parent.
