§ 33330 Department Funds Transfer Authority

Key Takeaways

  • •The Department of Education can use money from certain funds to do its job.
  • •This includes money that was meant for old groups that don’t exist anymore.
  • •Some money, like what the State Board of Education still controls, stays with them.

Example

Imagine a school gets money from the state to buy books. If the group that used to handle the money is gone, the Department of Education can now use that money to buy the books instead.

The law lets the Department of Education take over money from old groups that don’t exist anymore, so they can still use it for schools.
