Bill Summary

As introduced, limits, for Carroll County, the weighted full-time equivalent average daily attendance for which the county is required to apportion all school funds collected by the county for current operation and maintenance purposes to that generated by students whose primary legal residence is located in Carroll County. - Amends TCA Title 5 and Title 49, Chapter 3.

AI Summary

This bill modifies how school funds are distributed in specific Tennessee counties, particularly those with a public virtual school operated by a special school district. It introduces a new definition for "WFTEADA," which stands for weighted full-time equivalent average daily attendance, calculated based on students whose primary legal residence is within the county. The bill limits the apportionment of county-collected school funds for current operations and maintenance to only the WFTEADA generated by students residing in that county. This change is intended to address situations where a county has multiple special school districts, at least one of which operates a virtual school, and ensures that county funds are primarily used for students within the county's legal residence.
