Section 56428 Of Chapter 4.4. Early Education For Individuals With Exceptional Needs From California Education Code >> Division 4. >> Title 2. >> Part 30. >> Chapter 4.4.
56428
. (a) For the 1985-86 fiscal year, and each fiscal year
thereafter, any instructional personnel service unit that was used in
the prior fiscal year to provide services to children younger than
three years of age shall continue to be used for that purpose. If a
special education local plan area becomes ineligible for all or any
portion of those instructional personnel service units operated and
fundable in the prior fiscal year, the Superintendent of Public
Instruction shall allocate those units to another local plan area for
the purpose of providing services to children younger than three
years of age.
(b) In the 1998-99 fiscal year, the instructional personnel
service unit rates used to compute state funding under this chapter
shall be adjusted to represent the actual, historic inflation
adjustment amount funded for each provider of early education
services under this chapter. To make this adjustment, the
superintendent shall make the following calculation:
(1) Divide the amount of funding received by the special education
local plan area in the 1997-98 fiscal year from property taxes and
state aid, after applying the deficit, for early education for
individuals with exceptional needs by the amount the special
education local plan area was entitled to receive for the 1997-98
fiscal year for that program.
(2) Multiply the amount determined in paragraph (1) by the
instructional personnel service unit rates for the 1997-98 fiscal
year used to compute state funding for early education for
individuals with exceptional needs prior to the application of the
inflation adjustment for the 1998-99 fiscal year.
(c) For the 1998-99 fiscal year, the department shall transfer an
amount from schedule (a) to schedule (b) of Item 6110-161-0001 of
Section 2.00 of the Budget Act of 1998, equal to the amount
determined by the department, with the approval of the Department of
Finance, to be the amount of funding received by the special
education local plan area from property taxes in the 1997-98 fiscal
year for early education programs for individuals with exceptional
needs, multiplied by the inflation factor computed pursuant to
Section 42238.1 for the 1998-99 fiscal year and adjusted for the
estimated growth in average daily attendance for kindergarten and
grades 1 to 12, inclusive, pursuant to the May Revision of the
Governor's Budget for the 1998-99 fiscal year.
