  The Department of
  Education and the Maine Charter School Commission may need to contract with
  an outside entity to conduct the required review in order to determine the
  appropriate amount of per-pupil allocation that should be provided for
  students enrolled in virtual charter schools. 
  According to the Department of Education, outside resources may be
  needed because neither the department nor the commission has the capacity, in
  staff resources or expertise, to gather and analyze the data necessary to
  make the required recommendations.  The
  cost to the department and its ability to absorb those costs without
  impacting other programs and services can not be determined at this time. |
