206-45 Wyo. Code R. §§ 45-3 - Reimbursement Calculation

(a) Districts, for school years 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, shall be reimbursed the lesser of actual special education expenditures or the amount reimbursed in school year 2018-2019.

(b) A district is eligible to receive a portion of the funding appropriated in 2018 Wyoming Session Laws chapter 137 section 6(a) if:

(i) The district's total special education expenditures are greater than its expenditures in the 2017-2018 school year; and

(ii) The district's out-of-district special education expenditures are greater than its expenditures in the 2017-2018 school year.

(c) An eligible district shall be reimbursed an amount equal to the lesser increase identified in section 3(b) of these rules. However, if the total statewide eligibility is greater than the amount allocated for each school year, the reimbursement shall be reduced on a pro-rata basis.

(d) If a district's total special education expenditures are less than the amount spent in 2017-2018, the amount of the decrease is made available for reallocation to other districts. A district will be eligible for a commensurate percentage of available reallocated funds when total special education expenditures have increased from 2017-2018.
