Fiscal Note
HB0079 - Concurrent Enrollment Amendments
State Impact:
Enactment of this bill would extend the current year's appropriation for the minimum school program into FY 2008 and increase the total appropriation supporting the concurrent enrollment program by $350,000. Further, it would assign Weighted Pupil Units to the concurrent enrollment program and establishes the program as an independent line item in the Minimum School Program. By making concurrent enrollment WPU driven, funding may be increased annually due to enrollment growth and WPU value increases.
| Funding Source | FY 2007 Approp. | FY 2008 Approp. | FY 2009 Approp. | FY 2007 Revenue | FY 2008 Revenue | FY 2009 Revenue |
| Uniform School Fund | $0 | $2,032,569,545 | $2,032,569,545 | $0 | $0 | $0 |
| Total | $0 | $2,032,569,545 | $2,032,569,545 | $0 | $0 | $0 |
Individual, Business and/or Local Impact:
Enactment of this bill may result in revenue reallocation among public education and higher education. Currently, school districts and higher education institutions negotiate concurrent enrollment fees on a district and institution basis. Enactment will standardize the division of revenue between public and higher education.
