This amendment deletes a prior committee amendment and makes six targeted revisions to the K-12 school finance bill regarding instructional fund restrictions, health insurance reporting, FTE adjustments, and cost computation timing.
- Removes the requirement that school districts 'shall' or 'may' do something unspecified (the amendment itself does not clarify what action is being deleted). (Page 44, line 12)
- Restricts use of amounts distributed to districts for instructional purposes to only those defined by statute, narrowing the scope of allowable expenditures. (Page 45, lines 6-7)
- Changes the logical operator from 'and' to 'or' in a provision governing district fund usage, broadening the conditions under which a rule applies. (Page 45, line 8)
- Removes the word 'as' from language regarding FTE reporting coverage calculations. (Page 59, line 8)
- Changes FTE reporting from a single snapshot ('as of October 1') to a monthly basis ('for each month'), and adds a substantial new provision requiring the Department of Education to adjust reported FTEs to reflect eligible participation in the state group health insurance plan and proportional contribution percentages. (Page 59, lines 9-26)
- Inserts the language 'Up to' before a subsection reference, likely modifying a limitation or cap on a specified amount or calculation. (Page 87, line 4)
