What’s in it
31 provides that if a school district has unusual circumstances, creating an unusual need for additional funds, including but not limited to the circumstances enumerated in the Code section, the school budget review committee may grant supplemental aid to the district from certain funds appropriated to the department of education for the use of the school budget review committee or may establish a modified supplemental amount for the district, or both. This bill adds an additional circumstance under which a school district may request such amounts from the school budget review committee.
Read the full explanation
Under the bill, if the percentage of students enrolled in the school district as the result of open enrollment is equal to or greater than percent of the total number of students enrolled in the school district, such circumstance is an unusual circumstance.43(2). Prior to filing a request with the school budget review committee, the school district must first hold a public hearing on the issue. The committee shall not approve supplemental aid or a modified supplemental amount that exceeds an amount equal to percent of the product of the net increase in the school district’s enrollment due to open enrollment multiplied by the sum of the following amounts: (1) the difference between the district’s regular program district cost per pupil minus the regular program state cost per pupil; (2) the teacher salary supplement district cost per pupil; (3) the professional development supplement district cost per pupil; and (4) the early intervention supplement district cost per pupil. The bill takes effect upon enactment and applies July 1, 2023, for school budget years beginning on or after that date.
