Special-education reimbursement assumptions could reduce referendum reliance by $100,000–$125,000
Summary
Administration said the budget assumes a conservative special-education reimbursement rate of about 33%; if the state rate increases to approximately 38%, the district could reduce referendum reliance by an estimated $100,000–$125,000.
At the June 1 meeting, administration told the finance committee the preliminary budget assumes a conservative special-education reimbursement rate of approximately 33 percent. The administration said that if the state reimbursement rate rises to about 38 percent, the district could reduce its reliance on referendum funds by an estimated $100,000–$125,000.
Committee members flagged this as an important sensitivity in the budget model and requested confirmation of the enrollment assumptions used in the calculation. Administration agreed to verify those assumptions and update projections if state rates or enrollment estimates change.
