11.2
LEA Charter Schools
Special Education funding for LEA Charter School(s) operating “seat time” special education programs shall be the special education revenue generated by the current period Charter ADA according to the base allocation principles of Section G. Special Education funding for LEA Charter School(s) operating “non -seat- time” special education programs is limited to the lesser of (1) the special education revenue generated by the current period Charter ADA, or (2) the SELPA’s ‘Charter Base plus Fee’ revenue calculation. This revenue calculation is a combination of two components (1) the Base, calculated for the current fiscal year at 18% of the special education revenue generated by the Charter’s total ADA at P-2, plus (2) the SELPA Fee-for-service calculated for all special education services provided by the Charter to students at P-1 and P-2. This revenue is estimated at P-1 and finalized at P-2. Prior to 2004/05 payments were made at P-1, and P-2 with an annual adjustment. Effective in 2004/05, payments of revenue are made monthly via the purchase order process. Apportionments are distributed on the same apportionment cycle as all other member districts. (See Apportionment Distribution). Initial payments for July through January are made based on actual service levels from the prior fiscal year adjusted for the estimated services levels or new programs. Payments for March through June are based on the official P-1 and P-2 ADA reported on the School J18/19 CH report. A revenue adjustment may be made in May and June and again following year-end closing due to any corrections or adjustments in subsequent state certifications of ADA or special education revenues.
11.3
