Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Each school district shall allocate State Compensation
						Education (SCE) funds using one of the following methods, and in its
						consolidated application, shall specify to the California Department of
						Education the method used.
(a)
					 Alternative 1:
(1) Identify the schools
					 eligible for SCE funds in accordance with section
					 4410.
(2) Identify students who meet the objective
					 criterion eligible for participation in SCE programs in accordance with section
					 4414.
(3) Identify all students meeting the
					 criteria established in subdivision (2) who reside in attendance areas of
					 schools eligible for SCE funds according to the criterion established in
					 subdivision (1).
(4) Determine a
					 level of funding per participant which is in accordance with section
					 4416 and section
					 4420.
(5) Compute the percentage of students
					 participating in SCE programs who reside in Title I eligible attendance
					 areas.
(6) Determine the amount of
					 SCE funds to be allocated for SCE programs serving participating students who
					 reside in Title I eligible attendance areas such that the percentage of SCE
					 funds allocated to Title I eligible areas is at least as great as the
					 percentage of SCE participating students computed in subdivision (5).
(7) Allocate the portion of the district's
					 SCE funds which must be spent in Title I eligible areas as determined in
					 subdivision (6) to all Title I eligible schools which are also eligible to
					 receive SCE funds such that the same percentage of students eligible to
					 participate in SCE programs is served in each eligible school; e.g., if there
					 are sufficient funds to serve 60 percent of the eligible students in all Title
					 I eligible schools, then SCE funds would be allocated to serve 60 percent of
					 the eligible students in each eligible Title I school.
(8) Allocate the portion of the district's
					 SCE funds which may be spent in non-Title I eligible areas (the amount
					 remaining after subtracting SCE funds allocated to Title I schools as
					 determined in subdivision (6) to all non-Title I eligible schools which are
					 eligible to receive SCE funds such that the same percentage of students
					 eligible to participate in SCE programs are served in each eligible school;
					 e.g., if there are sufficient funds to serve 60 percent of the eligible
					 students in all non-Title I eligible schools, then SCE funds would be allocated
					 to serve 60 percent of the eligible students in each eligible non-Title I
					 school.
(9) Allocate Title I funds
					 to Title I eligible schools and students in accordance with Title I law and
					 regulations.
(10) If Title I
					 eligible schools are skipped for purposes of receiving Title I funds because
					 their programs for educationally disadvantaged students are funded by SCE,
					 these Title I eligible schools must receive the same nature and scope of
					 service as those which would have otherwise been provided under Title
					 I.
