Bill > HB4034

This bill amends existing Arizona law concerning career technical education districts (CTEDs) by clarifying responsibilities and funding mechanisms. Specifically, it adds language to section 15-393 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which governs CTEDs. The key changes include explicitly stating that the CTED governing board is responsible for the "funding for the district's average daily membership," which refers to the count of students attending CTED programs used to determine state funding. Additionally, the bill empowers the CTED board to monitor, review, and audit how participating school districts and charter schools use funds distributed by the CTED, ensuring these funds supplement rather than replace existing funding for career and technical education. It also clarifies that school districts and charter schools receiving these funds must provide any requested financial records or documentation to the CTED board for oversight purposes.
