STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

This legislation would allow school districts and public charter schools to receive salary-based apportionment based on adjusted mid-term support units, if full-term support units are at least 3% greater than mid-term support units. The adjustment is equal to 75% of the difference between full-term support units and mid-term support units. For example, salary-based apportionment for a school district or charter school with 100 mid-term units and 104 full-term support units would be based on 103 support units. Currently, all salary-based apportionment funds are based solely on mid-term support units. This would enable the minority of schools, which experience enrollment growth as the school year progresses, to receive additional funding for these students. This legislation has a three year sunset clause.
