This bill requires public elementary and middle/high schools receiving federal education funding to publicly disclose foreign money or contracts exceeding $10,000. Schools would have 30 days to file a written disclosure with the U.S. Secretary of Education naming the foreign source, country, amount, and any attached conditions.
Public school districts and administrators would face new reporting duties, while the U.S. Department of Education would receive and track disclosures. Parents, students, and taxpayers have no new obligations but would gain access to this information.
Schools that fail to comply could risk their eligibility for federal funding, since disclosure would become a condition of receiving federal assistance.
