RS31756 / H0763

This bill provides an appropriation to the new Student Support Division as part of the Public School Support Program. This division includes funding for Administrators, Operations, and Children's Programs. This appropriation provides enhancements to the FY 2025 maintenance budget with adjustments to nondiscretionary funding as a result of 696 fewer estimated support units for fiscal year 2025. This bill increases the discretionary funds distribution by 20.1%, and provides an additional 2% CEC for the administrative and classified positions. This bill also changes three sections of language that were approved in House Bill 460.

For FY 2024, the bill provides a supplemental appropriation of $105,000,000 for discretionary funds. This supplemental is the result of fewer calculated support units as a result of the state returning to average daily attendance (ADA) for student count funding purposes. This supplemental relies on existing appropriation and therefore has no impact to the General Fund.
