Requiring a definition of "resident" for purposes of the allocation method used to distribute federal forest revenue to schools.

Summary

  • Distributes federal forest revenues to school districts based on their proportion of resident enrolled students, rather than all enrolled students, compared to the total number of students in the county.
  • Directs the Superintendent of Public Instruction to define resident students for this purpose and in doing so, address the impact of alternative learning experience students on federal funds distribution.
