AI Summary
This bill requires school districts in Wisconsin to include specific information about American Indian students in their annual reports, starting with the 2026-27 school year. The required information includes the number, ages, and tribal affiliation of American Indian children attending the district's schools. The bill defines "American Indian" using the existing definition in section 115.71 (2) of Wisconsin statutes. By mandating this reporting, the bill aims to provide more comprehensive data about American Indian students' educational experiences, which could help inform educational policies, support, and resources for these students. The requirement applies to all school districts in the state and represents a new reporting obligation that will help track and potentially address educational disparities or needs specific to American Indian students.
