Required State Survey For Parents
In an effort to assist Minnesota districts in providing targeted programs and services to help all students succeed, districts are required by law to request more detailed student ancestry or ethnic origin information based on Minnesota’s largest groups, beyond what has been collected on enrollment forms under federal law since 2008. As a result of the new law, you are asked to report your child’s information. Starting with the 2019-20 school year, all schools in Minnesota will collect this information using these updated categories. The Minnesota Department of Education will continue to incorporate feedback from the public into this form.
