This bill contains modifications to the foundation formula including a mechanism to prorate the formula. Where the bill previously specified that summer school programs would have to have a strict academic focus to be funded, changes have been made to that language. The bill now would require schools with a free and reduced lunch count of over 60% to cap their funding for the program at 7% of the weighted Average Daily Attendance (ADA). For schools with less than 60% free and reduced lunch rates, the cap would be instated at 3% of the weighted ADA. This bill was passed out of committee last night.
