Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: The purpose of this amendment is to
				  establish a protocol to determine performance districts in years for which an
				  annual performance report (APR) for school districts is not issued. The related
				  calculation will establish a proxy for the APR, which can be used to identify
				  performance districts for the purpose of recalculating the state adequacy
				  target as required by statute.
(1) "Performance Districts" as defined
				pursuant to section
				163.011,
				RSMo, shall be identified by the Department of Elementary and Secondary
				Education (department), and used in the foundation formula calculation for
				years subsequent to fiscal year 2016, using the following process:
(A) The department shall calculate an annual
				performance report (APR) for school districts that reflects the percentage of
				possible points earned based upon the accreditation standards applied by the
				State Board of Education (board) in the classification of schools pursuant to
				section
				161.092(9),
				RSMo;
(B) No school district shall
				be eligible for designation unless it has earned at least ninety percent (90%)
				of the possible points reported in both school years immediately prior to the
				year in which the calculation must be made;
(C) Percentages of the two (2) prior years
				for districts eligible for designation will be averaged and ranked in order
				beginning with the highest average;
(D) Pursuant to section
				163.011,
				RSMo, the number of designated Performance Districts will not exceed
				twenty-five percent (25%) of Missouri schools in fiscal years subsequent to
				2018; and
(E) In any year in which
				the department does not generate an APR, the department will utilize the most
				recent data available for each performance standard in order to establish an
				equivalent percentage of points earned for determining Performance District
				designation.

PURPOSE: This amendment extends the time frame for
				  attendance data modifications for payment purposes due to the ongoing impact of

				  for charter school local education agencies (LEAs) for providing foundation
				  formula and other attendance-based payments in accordance with Chapter 160,
				  RSMo, to meet the needs of students and faculty due to the disproportionate
				  impacts of COVID-19 on attendance during the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 school
				  years.
(1) The following
				definitions apply to this rule:
(A) Average
				Daily Attendance (ADA): the quotient or the sum of the quotients obtained by
				dividing the total number of hours attended in a term by pupils between the
				ages of five (5) and twenty-one (21) by the actual number of hours school was
				in session in that term;
(B) First
				Preceding Year: The school year prior to the year attendance was impacted by
				COVID-19, specifically the 2019-2020 school year for the purpose of this rule;
				and
(C) Weighted Average Daily
				Attendance (WADA): The average daily attendance plus the product of twenty-five
				hundredths (0.25) multiplied by the free and reduced price lunch pupil count
				that exceeds the free and reduced price lunch threshold, plus the product of
				seventy-five (0.75) hundredths multiplied by the number of special education
				pupil count that exceeds the special education threshold, plus the product of
				six-tenths (0.6) multiplied by the number of limited English proficiency pupil
				count that exceeds the limited English proficiency
				threshold.
