Bill > S330

This bill amends Section 2 of Chapter 70 of the General Laws by introducing new definitions for how special education enrollment is calculated for funding purposes. Specifically, it defines "Assumed tuitioned-out special education enrollment" as the average percentage over the past five years of students with Individual Education Plans (IEPs) who are placed in out-of-district programs, and "Assumed in-school special education enrollment" as the average percentage over the past five years of students with IEPs who attend district schools. These changes aim to clarify how districts are credited for students receiving special education services both within and outside their own facilities, which can impact how educational funding is allocated.
