Statutory review of physical education standards delayed

Effective March 21, 2023, a new law pushes back the Department of Education’s statutorily required review of academic standards and related benchmarks for physical education in Minnesota schools.

Initially scheduled for the 2022-23 school year, the review will now take place beginning in the 2026-27 school year.

Rep. Laurie Pryor (DFL-Minnetonka) and Sen. Steve Cwodzinski (DFL-Eden Prairie) sponsor the law.
