EVERY STUDENT SUCCEEDS ACT (ESSA): FISCAL REPORTING
What is ESSA? ESSA is focused on educational equity….no matter who you are, where you live, where you came from, or where you go to school...all students will have the supports and instruction they need to be successful. 2
Two Primary Structures ❑ Instructional Requirements ❑ Fiscal Reporting Tonight our focus is on fiscal reporting. 3
What’s different? ESSA requires schools to report per pupil spending on an individual school and student basis. 4
How is the per pupil per school cost computed? Included for Each School Excluded from the Calculation ❑ Enrollment ❑ Staff ❑ Transportation ❑ Supplies ❑ Debt Service ❑ Textbooks ❑ Private and Charter ❑ Contractual Costs Institution Tuition ❑ Summer Special Education Costs 5
What does that mean? ❑ The required reporting displays the General Fund amended budget for 2019 - 2020. ❑ Only planned spending, minus the excluded items , a total of $48,859,945, is allocated to buildings. ❑ $10.8 million is excluded from this reporting (budget totals $59, 696,249). 6
What factors influence the calculation? ❑ Staff Seniority ❑ Types of Programs ❑ Other Identifications (Title 1 School) 7
Per Pupil Per Building Costs Glendaal Lincoln Middle School ❑ $18,663 ❑ $21,716 ❑ $18,730 Glen-Worden Sacandaga High School ❑ $20,117 ❑ $19,019 ❑ $19,316 8
Misinterpreting the Per Pupil Costs As we look at schools identified as not meeting the needs of particular subgroups, we want to be careful about assuming a causal relationship between per pupil spending and achievement. 9
