SB 1022 - This act modifies the definition of "weighted average daily attendance" as used in the education funding formula to mean the average daily attendance plus the "weighting modifier for free and reduce price lunch pupils", rather than the product of 0.25 multiplied by the free and reduced price lunch pupil count that exceeds the free and reduced price lunch threshold, plus certain other factors set forth in current law. The act defines "weighting modifier for free and reduced price lunch pupils" as the product of the free and reduced price lunch pupil count that exceeds the free and reduced price lunch threshold multiplied by 0.30 for fiscal year 2025, by 0.35 for fiscal year 2026, by 0.40 for fiscal year 2027, by 0.45 for fiscal year 2028, and by 0.50 for fiscal year 2029 and each subsequent fiscal year. The same modification is made in the calculation of weighted average daily attendance for special school districts. This act is substantially similar to SB 251 (2023), SB 771 (2022), and SB 476 (2021) and is similar to SB 954 (2020). OLIVIA SHANNON
