SB 637 Education; composite index of local ability to pay.
Introduced by: Emmett W. Hanger, Jr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)
Education; computation of the composite index of local ability to pay. Allows any locality or localities comprising a school division that has a population of less than 5,000 and less than 1,000 students in average daily membership to elect, as its option, to use the average composite index of local ability to pay of contiguous localities comprising all or part of a school division. In calculating this average, the Department of Education is to use the composite indices of those localities comprising all or part of school divisions contiguous to the locality whose composite index is being adjusted, but would exclude from such average calculation the composite index of any locality that is capped at .8000. Each locality electing this option is to notify the Department of Education of its intention to do so on or before July 1 of each year. The Department of Education would compute the composite index for these localities by using such average, but would not adjust the composite index of any other localities.
