HF 2051: Providing for supplementary weighting for school districts that share school and career specialists

Died when the session ended · The 2026 session adjourned on May 3, 2026, the General Assembly’s last regular session. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill provides that school and career specialists are eligible for shared operational functions for purposes of supplementary weighting. Under current law, school districts that share certain operational functions with another political subdivision are assigned a supplementary weighting for each shared operational function in order to provide additional funding to increase student opportunities and redirect more resources to student programming. The bill adds school and career specialist to the list of positions that qualify for supplementary weighting when shared between a school district and another political subdivision for at least twenty percent of the school year.
