District reports apportionment bump and drop in special‑education revenue
Summary
Staff reported January apportionment adjustments added roughly $11,000 to the district's revenue while special‑education funding fell after a student receiving services left; the board discussed timing and claims procedures.
A district staff member told trustees that apportionment calculations based on updated enrollment resulted in an increase of about $11,000 for the district. "So a first minute increased, by about $11,000," the staff member said while walking trustees through the monthly apportionment adjustments.
Trustees also heard that special‑education funding declined after the district lost a student who had been receiving services; staff said the district will apply for Safety Net assistance because one student has extreme needs and to cover related costs if eligible. Board members discussed how OSPI adjustments are applied retroactively and how monthly revenue claims change after actual enrollment is recorded.
