SUMMARY

This amendment, which is the majority report of the committee, strikes and replaces the bill. The amendment retains the portion of law that establishes the system administration allocation at $138 per pupil for fiscal year 2018-19. The amendment modifies the law that establishes the system administration allocation for fiscal year 2019-20 and subsequent fiscal years by continuing the same per pupil allocation as the 2018-19 allocation and by revising the eligibility for receiving a portion of the system administration allocation to also include school administrative units that are identified as high-performing, efficient school administrative units by a statewide education policy research institute due to their percentage of system administration expenditures.
