Bill > S293

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 70 of the General Laws, which likely pertains to state education funding in Massachusetts, by including "transitory student enrollment" in the calculation of aid. Specifically, it adds a provision to the definition of "Foundation miscellaneous expenses" to include an adequate amount of money multiplied by the transitory student enrollment. The bill also defines "transitory student enrollment" as the average number of students who enter a school district after October 1st of a given year, calculated over the three preceding fiscal years. This change aims to ensure that school districts receive appropriate funding for students who enroll later in the academic year, acknowledging the costs associated with educating these students.
