RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR THE PROGRAM
This program is funded with general fund and interagency transfers. The Department of Education transfers funding to this program for the Extended School Year Program in compliance with the Laura I. consent decree.
The total means of financing for this program is recommended at 95.0% of the existing operating budget. It represents 81.3% of the total request ($1,300,101) for this program. The changes are partly due to a reduction in risk management premiums, personnel reductions and the full funding of all recommended positions. The remaining difference is due to statewide adjustments.
