§ 15784 District Annexation Aid Adjustment

This law says that if a school district that gets state aid gets taken over or merged into another district, the state can stop giving it that aid or change how much it gets, depending on whether the new district qualifies for aid.

Key Takeaways

  • •If a district is fully annexed by a district that cannot receive aid, it stops getting further aid.
  • •If a district is annexed by an eligible district that also seeks aid, the state can re-evaluate and adjust the aid amounts.
  • •If only part of a district is annexed, the state can still add up to the originally approved amount of aid within two years, without requiring new bonds.

Example

A small school district receives state funding. Later the district is merged into a larger district that also wants state aid.

Because of the merger, the state may stop sending the original district its share of aid, or it may give the larger district extra money to cover the change, as allowed by the statute.
