In order to make these applications available as soon as possible, the template for TDHS licensed agencies is being used.  As a result, some of the terminology used in the TDHS template may not match the base funding formula used for agencies regulated by TDOE.  For example, the TDOE formula is generally based upon reported enrollment rather than capacity (with some limited exceptions where the reported enrollment exceeded the approved capacity).  Therefore, references to “capacity” or “licensed capacity” in the application template for TDOE regulated agencies equate to the official enrollment number reported to TDOE and captured in the system of record.  Within the application there is a question that asks you to confirm that “The current licensed capacity is: __________” by indicating “Yes” or “No”.  As noted above, for the purposes of applications for TDOE regulated agencies, the total populated here will generally be the last enrollment number reported to TDOE and recorded in the system.  This enrollment number is multiplied by the average cost per child associated with your sized agency to calculate the potential base award amount.
