Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024
(1) The Department
of Education shall determine for each fiscal year the portion of the funds
available for the Career Pathway Funding allocation and the annual pathway
allocation maximum.
(2) Prior to
the allocation in each fiscal year, the Department of Education shall:
(a) Determine which programs of study are
pathways to a high wage and high demand job;
(b) Identify qualifying students enrolled in
the prior school year at each district; and
(c) Report the data to the CTE Regional
Coordinators for verification of accuracy.
(d) For each qualifying student enrolled in a
district in the prior school year, the district will earn one point for
purposes of the allocation formula in section (4) of this rule. If one
qualifying student meets the qualifications of more than one section in
581-017-0287(8), the district will earn more than one point, up to three points
total.
(e) The Department shall
determine the amount of the allocation to each school district based on the
following formula:
Allocation Amount = number of points earned by a school
district in the prior school year x (the total amount available for
distribution for Career Pathway Funding in a fiscal year / the total number of
points in the State in the prior school year), not to exceed the annual pathway
allocation maximum.
(f)
Funds received by a school district under this section must be separately
accounted for and must be distributed to the career and technical education
program of study that served the qualifying students for which the funds were
received. If a program of study is no longer in existence, the school district
may not receive Career Pathway Funds for the qualifying students served by the
defunct program.
