Stillwater homeschool nonpublic-aid reimbursement

What the record says: Stillwater Area Public Schools identifies the Student Report for Aids as the route for homeschool families requesting reimbursement for eligible materials and tests, with separate service requests for health and guidance support.

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 Stillwater Area Public School District.

• 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; itemized receipts and proof of payment are required.
• The MDE rate is a capped reference amount. The district approves eligible items and may issue a check, purchase materials, or pay a provider under the current process.
• The district's enrollment page says the Student Report for Aids is due October 1; verify the current district form, receipt process, and categories before applying.
• Stillwater also publishes curricular-course and shared-time options. Those are separate public-access routes and are not counted as this reimbursement record.
