FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



According to officials from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), the Department is currently administering a $527,000 professional development grant for Academically Deficient Schools activities. DESE assumes that if the program is removed, those professional development monies would be used for other activities; therefore, there would be no fiscal impact related to this proposal.

DESCRIPTION



This proposal deletes the Academically Deficient Schools Program (Section 160.538, RSMo, and Section 160.540, RSMo) from the statutes.



This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
