(1)
(a)
For every budget year through the 2024-25 budget year, this section must be used to determine each district's total program. The district's total program is available to the district to fund the costs of providing public education, and, except as otherwise provided in section
22-54-105
, the district has the discretion to determine the amounts and purposes for budgeting and expending its total program money.
(b)
Notwithstanding subsection (1)(a) of this section to the contrary, if a district is an institute charter school's accounting district, then the total program determination pursuant to this section also represents the institute charter school's financial base of support, even though the institute charter school is not a school of the district. The amount of the district's state share of total program that is withheld from the district and paid to the state charter school institute pursuant to section
22-54-115
(1.3) is not available to or under the control of the district but is under the control of the institute charter school's governing board to fund the costs of providing public education to pupils enrolled in the institute charter school. The institute charter school has the discretion to determine the amounts and purposes for budgeting and expending its total program money.
(c)
(I)
Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, for the 2025-26 budget year through the 2029-30 budget year, the department of education shall calculate each district's total program pursuant to this section for the purpose of determining each district's total program pursuant to section 22-54-103.3. The district's total program is available to the district to fund the costs of providing public education, and, except as otherwise provided in section 22-54-105, the district has the discretion to determine the amounts and purposes for budgeting and expending its district total program money.
(II)
Notwithstanding subsection (1)(c)(I) of this section to the contrary, if a district is an institute charter school's accounting district, then the district total program calculation pursuant to this section also represents the institute charter school's financial base of support for public education, even though the institute charter school is not the district's school. The amount of the district's state share of total program that is withheld from the district and paid to the state charter school institute pursuant to section 22-54-115 (1.3) is not available to or under the control of the district but is available to and under the control of the institute charter school's governing board to fund the costs of providing public education to students enrolled in the institute charter school. The institute charter school has the discretion to determine the amounts and purposes for budgeting and expending its total program money.

For the 2003-04 budget year and each budget year thereafter in which a new cost of living analysis is required pursuant to sub-subparagraph (A) of this subparagraph (III), the department of education shall transfer a portion of the total amount appropriated by the general assembly in the annual general appropriation bill for that budget year for assistance to public schools, public school finance, state share of districts' total program funding to the legislative council to fund the cost of living analysis required by sub-subparagraph (A) of this subparagraph (III). The amount transferred by the department shall not exceed the maximum amount specified in a footnote related to this appropriation in the annual general appropriation bill for that budget year.

, until the cost of living factor for such district is certified by the staff of the legislative council pursuant to subparagraph (III) of this paragraph (c).
(B)
The rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to this subparagraph (IV) shall be designed to provide neither an incentive nor a disincentive to the organization of new districts pursuant to article
30
of this title and shall include provisions to ensure that the cost of living factor within a new district is not reduced solely because the new district is the result of a consolidation of existing districts. Such rules and regulations shall consider the cost of living factors assigned to the districts that are affected by the organization of the new district and the circumstances of the new district based on the most recent cost of living analysis performed by the legislative council.
(C)
New districts that are created as the result of a deconsolidation as described in section
22-30-102 (2)(a)
shall retain the cost of living factor of the district from which they were separated until the cost of living factor for the new district is certified by the staff of the legislative council pursuant to subparagraph (III) of this paragraph (c).

(A)
Any distribution or allocation of moneys for which the amount of per pupil revenues or per pupil funding is a component in the calculation of the amount distributed or allocated;
(B)

(C)
A district's extended high school funding pursuant to subsection (4.7) of this section; and

(A)
"Actual statewide total program funding" means the sum of the total program funding for all districts, including the funding for institute charter schools, as calculated pursuant to subsection (2) of this section, after application of the budget stabilization factor pursuant to this subsection (5)(g).
(B)
"Calculated statewide total program funding" means the sum of the total program funding for all districts, including the funding for institute charter schools, as calculated pursuant to subsection (2) of this section, before application of the budget stabilization factor pursuant to this subsection (5)(g).

(5.5)
For the 2024-25 budget year, and each budget year thereafter, the department of education and the staff of the legislative council shall determine, based on budget projections, the amount to ensure that, for the 2024-25 budget year, the sum of total program funding for all districts, including funding for institute charter schools, is not less than nine billion seven hundred thirty-five million seven hundred sixty-seven thousand four hundred twenty-nine dollars ($9,735,767,429); except that the department of education and the staff of the legislative council shall make mid-year revisions to replace projections with actual figures, including, but not limited to, actual pupil enrollment, assessed valuations, and specific ownership tax revenue from the prior year, to determine any necessary changes in the amount of the reduction to maintain total program funding for the applicable budget year that is consistent with this subsection (5.5).

(f)
Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, for the purposes of this subsection (7), a district's pupil enrollment for the applicable budget year and a district's pupil enrollment for any preceding budget year do not include a pupil who is or was enrolled in a charter school that was originally authorized by the district but was subsequently converted, on or after July 1, 2010, to an institute charter school or to a charter school of a district contiguous to the originally authorizing district.
(g)
Notwithstanding any provision of this subsection (7) to the contrary, for the purposes of this subsection (7), if a district's funded pupil count calculated pursuant to this subsection (7) for a budget year is fewer than fifty pupils, The district's funded pupil count for the budget year is fifty pupils.
