19 Tex. Admin. Code § 66.1309 - High Enrollment Growth Adjustment
(a) From the biennial instructional materials
fund, the commissioner of education shall set aside an amount not to exceed $10
million for each year of the biennium to make high-enrollment-growth
adjustments for school districts and open-enrollment charter schools that
experience the highest enrollment growth from the previous year.
(b) High-enrollment-growth adjustments will
be based on the difference between the school district's or open-enrollment
charter school's percentage of enrollment growth and that of the state.
Enrollment growth calculations will be determined each fiscal year based on
fall Texas Student Data System Public Education Information Management System
enrollment data.
(c) The amount of
the adjustment determined by the commissioner is final and may not be
appealed.
(d) If sufficient
instructional materials funds are available, high-enrollment-growth adjustments
will be granted once each fiscal year.
(e) The per-student high-enrollment-growth
adjustment granted in the second year of a biennium shall not exceed one-half
of the per-student amount established as the biennial instructional materials
and technology allotment.
(f)
Notwithstanding subsection (d) of this section, a school district or an
open-enrollment charter school that experiences an unexpected growth of at
least two percent due to a natural or man-made disaster or catastrophic event
may apply to the commissioner for additional allotment funding at any time
during a fiscal year. Any additional funding will be dependent on the
availability of funds.
(g)
Notwithstanding subsection (d) of this section, a school district or an
open-enrollment charter school that experiences an unexpected growth in its
bilingual population of at least 10 percent in any school year may apply to the
commissioner for additional bilingual allotment funding at any time during a
fiscal year. Any additional funding will be dependent on the availability of
funds.
