Relates to the appropriation to the Public Schools Educational Support Program's Division of Student Support for fiscal years 2025 and 2026.

This appropriation to the Public School Support Program's Student Support Division provides enhancements to the FY 2026 program maintenance budget with the addition of federal grant funding for eligible school programs, two fund adjustments that reduce money from the General Fund and increase the appropriation for dedicated funds, and for population forecast adjustments to account for 200 fewer support units and for pupil transportation program costs for fiscal year 2026. Thisbillalsoincludesaonetimesupplementalappropriationtoprovideschoolstheirfundingforeligiblefederal school programs including special education and Title I-A for low income children. Payments to schools were held at the end of FY 2024 and paid for using the FY 2025 appropriation because the FY 2024 appropriation was capped at an amount below allowable costs. This supplemental corrects this imbalance for the current year, and there is a FY 2026 addition to adjust the appropriation moving forward. This bill does not include funding for a weighted student funding formula, additional discretionary funds, funding to support a revised student transportation formula, or for a special needs fund.
