Bill > SF110

This bill appropriates $500,000 from the general fund to the Minnesota Department of Education, specifically allocating $250,000 in fiscal years 2026 and 2027 as a grant to the MacPhail Center for Music to expand its Learning with Music program. The grant funds will be used for two primary purposes: first, to develop and deliver professional development training for early childhood educators across the state, both online and in-person, based on research-backed successful elements of the Learning with Music program; and second, to deepen direct programming at five early childhood center locations in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, with a specific focus on serving children experiencing economic hardship. The goal is to enhance music education and professional development opportunities for early childhood educators and children, particularly those in underserved communities.
