Defines a day in session for purposes of a school district's receipt of State school aid.

Summary

The bill sets a specific definition of a school day – a day the school is open, a teacher is actively teaching, and the day lasts at least six hours, unless the school serves only kindergarten. Districts must meet this 180‑day requirement to receive state aid, and the commissioner can withhold aid for non‑compliance. The change aligns the aid rule with current education regulations and clarifies expectations for schools.
