Chapter 392-343 - State funding assistance in providing school plant facilities-Basic state support
Section 392-343-050 - Space allocations - Computing building capacity
Current through Register Vol. 24-06, March 15, 2024
The net total area of a school facility eligible for state funding assistance shall be calculated as follows:
(1) The capacity of existing buildings within the district based on the school district's assigned grade spans shall be computed in accordance with the tables set forth in WAC 392-343-035 and the square foot area analysis set forth in WAC 392-343-040.
(2) The number of students projected at each grade span shall be multiplied by appropriate numbers of square feet as set forth in WAC 392-343-035. (Note: The area generated at each grade level determines district eligibility, if any.)
(3) The amount of housing the district is eligible to construct at each grade span is determined by subtracting the area computed in subsection (2) of this section from the existing housing capacity at each grade span in the school district. Using this formula, over housing at the secondary grade level, grades nine through twelve, or elementary grade level, kindergarten through eight, will not negatively affect unhoused eligibility at the elementary grade level or secondary grade level respectively.
(4) Appropriate grade assignment is a local determination.
