Or. Admin. Code § 581-023-0019 - School Census
(1) By January 1 of
each year, the Center for Population Research and Census certifies to the
Oregon Department of Education and to the administrative office of each county
an estimate of the population of each county between the ages of 4 and 20, as
of October 25 of the previous year. This census is used as the basis for the
apportionment of the distributable income account of the Common School Fund to
the counties by the Division of State Lands, and also as the basis for
determining the amount of the County School Fund mandated levy by the
administrative office of each county.
(2) In order to satisfy statutory references
to "school age children" or "school census," an estimated census for all common
(unified and elementary) school districts shall be computed in the following
manner:
(a) The Department of Education shall
prorate the annual estimated school census of the state to each education
service district or county school district in the same proportion as each
education service district's or county school district's resident average daily
membership (as defined in ORS
327.006) for the previous June
30 bears to the total resident average daily membership of the state. This
census is certified by the Department of Education to each education service
district or county school district by January 31 of each year;
(b) Each education service district or county
district shall then prorate this school census to the common school districts
within its jurisdiction according to the plan approved by the Superintendent of
Public Instruction prior to January 1, 1973. Such distribution is to be
reported by the education service district or county school district to the
districts and the Department of Education by March 15 of each year. This
district census is used only for satisfaction of the above mentioned statutory
references, and is not used for the distribution of any funds.
