§ 41203 School District Funding Calculation

Key Takeaways

  • •The state calculates money for schools and community colleges all together in one big calculation.
  • •This includes schools for kids from kindergarten to 12th grade and community colleges.
  • •The state also includes money for teaching kids directly in this calculation.

Example

The state needs to figure out how much money to give to all the schools and community colleges.

Instead of calculating money for each school separately, the state adds up all the money needed for kindergarten through 12th grade schools, community colleges, and any direct teaching services, and does one big calculation.
