Bill Summary
Eliminates use of census-based funding of special education aid in school funding law.
AI Summary
This bill eliminates the use of census-based funding of special education aid in the school funding law. Specifically, it removes the provisions related to the state average classification rate for general special education services pupils and speech-only pupils, as well as the calculation of special education census funding. Instead, the bill proposes using the actual number of general special education services pupils and speech-only pupils in the district's resident enrollment, along with the excess cost for those students, to determine the special education cost component of the adequacy budget. This change aims to provide a more direct and accurate way of accounting for special education costs in the school funding formula.
