Washington Administrative Code › Title 392 - Public Instruction, Superintendent of › Chapter 392-343 - State funding assistance in providing school plant facilities-Basic state support › Section 392-343-505 - State funding assistance - Common priority elements

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
The four priority elements that are common to all projects are
				as follows:
(1) Type of space - Ten
			 possible points. In this element the net assignable square feet (NASF) of a
			 project are identified by planned space inventory category. Category One is
			 space used for scheduled instruction and libraries (classrooms, laboratories,
			 PE teaching space, libraries, and learning resource centers). Category Two is
			 space used in support of instruction (assembly, student services, office space,
			 and classroom/lab service and support). Category Three space is cafeteria/food
			 service, spectator seating, covered play areas, and general support space. The
			 formula for determining points prorates the NASF with weightings of ten for
			 Category One, seven for Category Two, and four for Category Three as shown
			 below.
NASF of Category One

10 points = X
NASF of Category Two

7 points = X
NASF of Category Three
X
4 points = X
Then: The sum of X divided by the sum of NASF equals
				points.
(2) Local priority
			 - Five points. For this element, five maximum points are awarded to the
			 district's first priority project. Each priority from there has one point
			 deducted from it, to a minimum of zero points awarded.
(3) Joint funding - Five possible points. A
			 binding agreement between the school district and another governmental entity
			 for the joint financing of new construction or modernization of space which is
			 not otherwise eligible for state funding assistance.

			 Modified calendar or schedule - Five possible points. For this element, up to
			 five points utilizing the table below will be awarded to a project in a
			 district which has adopted a modified school calendar or schedule that enables
			 more students to use school buildings each year over what current state
			 capacity standards at WAC
			 392-343-035 recognize for state
			 funding assistance purposes. The modified calendar or schedule shall utilize
			 either extended school day or additional days for instruction in the year. The
			 enrollment percentage shall be calculated on the same grade span groupings as
			 for eligibility in WAC
			 392-343-050. For the purpose of
			 this subsection, the enrollment shall include all students enrolled at the
			 facility as opposed to only those students in attendance.
