Food Service FundThe Food Service Fund tracks all expenditures associated with preparing and serving breakfast

and lunch meals in the District. The fund is supported by federal and state aid as well as from the sale of student and adult meals and catering events.

The Food Service budget currently does not require a transfer from general operating funds for support.

The Board of Education approved meal prices for the 2019-2020 school year at the July 8, 2019, Organizational Meeting.

KPERS Special Retirement Contribution FundThrough the 2005 Omnibus Appropriations Bill, the Kansas Legislature amended the procedures by which

the state pays school districts’ employer share of KPERS. The change required KPERS to certify to the Kansas State Department of Education the employer’s share of

KPERS for every school district on a quarterly basis. The Kansas State Department of Education sends the money to the district, who in turn immediately returns the money to KPERS.

During the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 the state only paid three of the four quarterly payments.

The 2017-2018 reflects four quarters; 2018-2019 only 3 quarters were paid. 2019-2020 is published to make up the quarter (5 payments)

Professional Development FundThe In-Service Fund was established in 1985. A district was required to have an approved in-service plan on file with the Kansas State Board of

Education before the In-Service Fund could be used. Eligible expenses include:

Consultants’ honorariums and travel expensesCost of materials used in trainingSalaries for substitute teachers for certified staff who have filed an Individual Development Plan (IDP), (not to exceed 25% of total in-service expenditures)Salary of secretarial personnel (not to exceed 1 hour per certified IDP on file)Registration fees and travel expenses for in-service workshops for certified employees who have plans on fileSalary to staff outside duty day for professional development within certified staff’s IDP (individual development plan) goals and objectives

In 2003-2004, the fund name changed from the In-Service Fund to the Professional Development Fund and no state funding was provided. The fund revenues were entirely a transfer from General/LOB Funds and some reimbursement revenues.

From 2005-2006 through about 2008-2009, a small amount of state aid funding was provided for eligible expenditures, and then the state aid stopped.

Beginning in 2017-2018 the state began putting funds towards Professional Development again. 2017-2018 State Aid 87,4912018-2019 State Aid 82,681 unaudited2019-2020 State Aid 100,000 budgeted

Bilingual Education Weighting

20119-2020 Bilingual Education Weighting is based on the higher number of student contact hours or headcount of enrolled and eligible students. (Audited 2019-2020 and not prior year, like base enrollment)

The Bilingual Education Fund tracks expenditures for the district’s English as a Second Language program. The Bilingual Fund is a state “Program Weighted Fund.” The sole source of revenue is a transfer from the General Fund. Weighted funding is based on student contact hours with an ELL-endorsed staff member.

5. Estimated 2019-20 Bilingual Weighting = 165.2

A. (9/20/19 Contact Hrs 2,510.0+ 2/20/20 Contact Hrs 0.0) / 6 x 0.395 = 165.2

B. (9/20/19 ELL Headcount 855+ 2/20/20 ELL Hdct 0) x .185 = 158.2

Note: Bilingual weighting is based on the higher of contact hours or headcount.

Career & Technical Education (CTE)formerly known as the Vocational Education Fund

The Career and Technical Education Fund tracks all expenditures associated with the instruction of high-tech, equipment-intensive programs such as computers for business education and machines for auto classes and shop programs. Vocational Education or CTE (Career and Tech Education) courses typically require smaller class sizes as well.

The Career and Technical Education Fund is a state “Program Weighted Fund.” Funding is based on contact hours for state-approved courses only.

The sole source of revenue in this fund is a transfer from the General/LOB Funds and a small amount of state aid funding for special transportation mileage.

6. Estimated 2019-20 Career Technical Education (CTE) weighting (see Footnote (c))

(9/20/19 CTE contact hrs 2,375.0+ 2/20/20 contact hrs 0.0) / 6 x 0.5 = 197.9

At Risk Fund (K-12)The At Risk Fund (K-12) is a state “Program Weighted Fund.” The weighted funding is transferred from the General Fund to a Special

Revenue Fund, where expenditures for the district’s at risk programs (K-12) are to be recorded.

Beginning in 2017-2018, since full-day Kindergarten is now funded within the base enrollment, these funds cannot be used for the .5 FTE that was unfunded. Guidelines have been expanded slightly and in 2018-2019, the state will require all districts to spend these funds ONLY on what are considered “best practices” for use of At Risk K-12 Funds.

This weighting will be audited during 2019-2020 and is estimated HIGH in order to capture all audited budget authority; It is not expected that the full published authority will be realized, and we should not commit expenditures to the fully published authority.

Current Post Legislative audit may impact the use of these funds.

A few examples of how Lawrence uses the At Risk Fund include but are not limited to extended day, tutoring, credit recovery during the summer, pro-rated share of certified teacher salaries based on proficiency in category 1 students K-12, instructional learning coaches are also pro-rated based on same %K-12 and elementary instructional support services math and reading.

Transportation WeightingTransportation weighting is based on number of students who reside in the district 2.5 miles or more from school and a density factor computed by the state. The

weighting does not fully cover the cost of district transportation.

TABLE III - Transportation Weighting (KSA 72-5148)1. Area of district in square miles 9-20-2019. = 175.2

2. All public pupils transported or for whom transportation is being made available 9-20-2019 who reside in the district 2.5 miles or more (Estimated) 2,300.0 + 2-20-20 0.0 = 2,300.0

New Facilities Weighting

Lawrence USD 497 is no longer eligible for New Facilities Weighting

These are NOT ongoing funds. These funds are limited to a two-year window, and then go away. One-time funds should not be committed to ongoing costs, as there is no replacement revenue when they are gone.

2018-2019 was the last year for New Facilities Weighting.

Special EducationThe Special Education Fund tracks all expenditures associated with the special education programs in the district. Included in the Special Education Fund is special transportation for students with special needs.

The source of revenue for Special Education is local money, federal grants, and a transfer from General Funds, which includes state aid.

Beginning in 2001-2002, the state aid for Special Education was converted to a weighted FTE and is part of the General Fund legal max calculation. The state aid funds are transferred to the Special Education Fund when received.

Virtual Education State Aid Virtual Education is no longer a weighting, it is a State Aid Calculation. It remains funded at the same level as 2016-2017 block grant level. The only change is the amount for students age 19 on Sept 20 , was decreased.

• Full-Time Students 18 and under FTE X $5,000• Part-Time Students 18 and under FTE X $1,700• Students 19 on Sept 20, determine number of 1 hour credit courses pupil has passed and multiply the total credits by $709 (down from $933.)• Add calculated amounts for total funds• Estimates are HIGH. Enrollment for Virtual School doesn’t end until September. The budget needs to be published high enough to capture all growth.

Spending authority will only be the 2019-2020 realized audited enrollment.

“VIRTUAL SCHOOL” means any school or educational program that: (1) is offered for credit (2) Uses distance-learning technologies which predominantly use internet-based methods to deliver instruction; (3) involves instruction that occurs asynchronously with the teacher and pupil in separate locations; (4) requires the pupil to make academic progress toward the next grade level and matriculation from kindergarten through high school graduation; (5) requires the pupil to demonstrate competence in subject matter for each class or subject in which the pupil is enrolled as part of the virtual school; and (6) require age-appropriate pupils to complete state assessment tests. (K.S.A. 72-6407) A pupil enrolled in a virtual school in a district but who is not a resident of the state of Kansas shall not be counted. (K.S.A. 72-6407)

Cost of Living Levy FundThis fund is based on the following formula:The Kansas State Board of Education will determine (per KSA 72-6449)

• Statewide average appraised value of single family residences for the calendar year proceeding the current school year

• Multiply the amount by 1.25

• Average appraised value of single family residences for the district for the calendar year proceeding the school year

Bond & InterestThe Bond and Interest Fund is used to make principal and interest payments on long-term obligations.

The district is authorized to issue whatever mill levy is required to fund the payment of principal and interest on these outstanding general obligation bonds.

In 2017, the community approved an $87 million bond issue, projecting a 2.4 mill increase to the B&I Fund.

The first half of the bonds were sold in 2017, and the 2nd half of the bonds will be sold in 2018.

Instead of a 2.4 mill increase over the 2016-2017 mill of 9.5, the two year cumulative actual increase is 1.484 mill, .916 mill less that projected during the bond campaign

The mill levy is projected to decrease for 2019-2020.

*Block Grant Funding

▪ The revenue for this fund comes from two basic sources: State Aid and Local Taxes.

▪ **When the mill levy was set for this budget year the district expected and budgeted for $5,985,375, but the state of Kansas reduced the amount mid-year, causing the district to use more cash reserves to fill the gap in lost revenue which triggered a higher mill levy in the following budget year to recoup the loss.

Local Option Budget State Aid will again be allowed to follow the formula: 33% of the General Fund.

Comparing Actual to Budget•Remember that school districts must budget “high” for authority, and cannot exceed the published amount, even if there are revenues that would allow them to exceed it.

•To exceed the maximum authority, the budget would have to be re-published, and in some cases, certain levied funds cannot be republished.

•If a published budget authority is exceeded, beyond any reimbursement income, it is a statutory violation and is a financial red flag when agencies such as Moody’s, Dun and Bradstreet and municipal bond investors who review our audited financial statements annually.
