1999 SESSION
HB 1513 Funding for certain at-risk pupils.
Introduced by: Linda T. Puller | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Funding for certain at-risk pupils. Expands the current state grants initiative for certain at-risk preschool pupils by providing, during the 1999-2000 fiscal year and thereafter, for the allocation of the state share of the grant per child, as specified in the appropriation act, for 100 percent of the unserved at-risk four-year-olds and five-year-olds who are not eligible to attend kindergarten in the Commonwealth. This 100 percent is to be calculated by adding services for 40 percent more of the unserved at-risk children to the 60 percent of unserved at-risk children in each locality provided funding in the appropriation act. Under current law, grants distributed in 1996-97 and thereafter are calculated based upon a state share for 60 percent of unserved four-year-olds. Localities wishing to qualify for these grants must pledge matching funds, based on the composite index of local ability to pay.
