MEM-6099 2013-14 SUPPORT OF SP ED COMPLIANCE
The Special Allocation for Support of Special Education Compliance (Program 2817) is provided as a supplement to the school budget to be used in conjunction with all available resources at a school site. The allocation for 2013-14 will be $85 for each student with an active Individualized Education Program (IEP) in the Welligent System and enrolled in the school at the time of the allocation.
The initial allocation of “2013-14 Special Allocation for Support of Special Education Compliance” funding will be disbursed to schools when the budget opens after July 1 of the school year through program code 2817. The initial allocation will be based on 75% of the number of students reported in a February 2013 count of students with an active IEP in Welligent.
It is the responsibility of site personnel to use these funds effectively. Schools may be required to reimburse overdrafts from other available funds. If an overdraft is still present at the end of the school year, schools may have future allocations reduced based on the year-end overdraft expenditures report by the General Accounting Branch.
