Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) An LEA shall provide evidence in its LCAP
					 to demonstrate how funding apportioned on the basis of the number and
					 concentration of unduplicated pupils, pursuant to Education Code sections
					 2574,
					 2575,
					 42238.02,
					 and
					 42238.03 is
					 used to support such pupils. This funding shall be used to increase or improve
					 services for unduplicated pupils as compared to the services provided to all
					 pupils in proportion to the increase in funds apportioned on the basis of the
					 number and concentration of unduplicated pupils as required by Education Code
					 section
					 42238.07(a)(1).
					 An LEA shall include in its LCAP an explanation of how expenditures of such
					 funding meet the LEA's goals for its unduplicated pupils in the state priority
					 areas. An LEA shall determine the percentage by which services for unduplicated
					 pupils must be increased or improved above services provided to all pupils in
					 the fiscal year as follows:
(1) Estimate the
					 amount of the LCFF target attributed to the supplemental and concentration
					 grants for the LEA calculated pursuant to Education Code sections
					 42238.02
					 and
					 2574 in the
					 fiscal year for which the LCAP is adopted.
(2) Estimate the amount of LCFF funds
					 expended by the LEA on services for unduplicated pupils in the prior year that
					 is in addition to what was expended on services provided for all pupils. The
					 estimated amount of funds expended in 2013-14 shall be no less than the amount
					 of Economic Impact Aid funds the LEA expended in the 2012-13 fiscal
					 year.
(3) Subtract subdivision
					 (a)(2) from subdivision (a)(1).
(4)
					 Multiply the amount in subdivision (a)(3), by the most recent percentage
					 calculated by the Department of Finance that represents how much of the
					 statewide funding gap between current funding and full implementation of LCFF
					 is eliminated in the fiscal year for which the LCAP is adopted.
(5) Add subdivision (a)(4) to subdivision
					 (a)(2).
(6) Subtract subdivision
					 (a)(5) from the LEA's total amount of LCFF funding pursuant to Education Code
					 sections
					 42238.02
					 and
					 2574, as
					 implemented by Education Code sections
					 42238.03
					 and
					 2575
					 respectively, excluding add-ons for the Targeted Instructional Improvement
					 Grant program and the Home to School Transportation program, in the fiscal year
					 for which the LCAP is adopted.
(7)
					 Divide the amount in subdivision (a)(5) by the amount in subdivision
					 (a)(6).
(8) If the calculation in
					 subdivision (a)(3) yields a number less than or equal to zero or when LCFF is
					 fully implemented statewide, then an LEA shall determine its percentage for
					 purposes of this section by dividing the amount of the LCFF target attributed
					 to the supplemental and concentration grant for the LEA calculated pursuant to
					 Education Code sections
					 42238.02
					 and
					 2574 in the
					 fiscal year for which the LCAP is adopted by the remainder of the LEA's LCFF
					 funding, excluding add-ons for the Targeted Instructional Improvement Grant
					 program and the Home to School Transportation program.
