Bill > HB06210

This bill proposes to modify section 10-76g of Connecticut's general statutes to require full reimbursement for local and regional boards of education for special education excess costs, effectively removing any existing funding cap. The special education excess cost grant is a financial mechanism designed to help school districts cover the additional expenses associated with providing educational services to students with disabilities, which can be significantly more costly than standard educational programming. By eliminating the previous cap on reimbursement, the bill aims to ensure that school districts are fully compensated for the actual expenses they incur in supporting students with special educational needs. This change could potentially provide more financial stability and resources for school districts, allowing them to better support students with disabilities without being constrained by previous funding limitations.
