Washington State Constitution Article IX
“It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provisions for the education of all children residing within its borders,...”
6
School Funding History
• Doran Decisions 1977-1988• Tasks the Legislature with defining “basic education”
• ESHB 2261 • Establishes prototypical school model & establishes QEC
• SHB 2776• Creates new school funding allocation model
• McCleary Decision 2010• Confirms state funding is not ample, it is not stable, it is not
dependable
7
Doran Court Decisions Doran I - 1977
◦ the level of funding provided by the state.... was not fully sufficient..
◦ legislature had not defined basic ed or provided fully sufficient funding without reliance on special excess levies
◦ led to Basic Ed Act of 1977 which established revised funding formula, substantially increased state funding, and limited amount and purpose of special levies.
8
Doran Court Decisions Doran II - 1983
◦ duty to fully fund includes not only basic ed act also: special education; transitional bilingual; remediation; transportation for some pupils.
Doran III - 1988◦ required establishment of some form of “safety
net” in special education
9
ESHB 2261 ESHB 2261 passed in 2009
◦ Defines new programs of Basic Education, while mandating that no new requirements shall be implemented without associated funding.
◦ Adopts prototype schools funding model. ◦ Establishes that programs shall be fully funded by the
2018-19 school year. ◦ Establishes a new funding formula for Pupil Transportation,
to begin during or before 2013. ◦ Created the Quality Education Council (QEC) to develop
and implement workgroups on funding formulas, data governance, levy, compensation
◦ Creates a roadmap for work groups to define the details of the funding formulas.
10
SHB2776 Prototypical School Funding Model
SHB2776 passed in 2010◦ Implements the new funding structure for education
as proposed by the QEC and the Funding formula technical workgroup
◦ New funding structure to begin Sept 2011◦ New structure only - no new dollars◦ Creates timeline for funding phase-in and 2018
deadline for full funding◦ Funding shall be for allocation purposes only
11
SHB 2776 Goals (continued)
More funding must begin in 2012-13 Full Day Kindergarten fully funded statewide
by 2017-18 K-3 Class Size Reduction fully funded by
2017-18 Materials, Supplies and Operating Costs fully
funded by 2015-16 Transportation fully funded by 2014-15
12
McCleary v. State of Washington McCleary 2010o The Washington State Supreme Court issued a ruling that
the state is not complying with its constitutional duty to “make ample provision for the basic education of all children in Washington.”
o Court recognized the Legislature had enacted “a promising reform package” in its 2009 education reform bill and indicated that legislation, if funded, “will remedy deficiencies in the K-12 funding system.”
o Court deferred to the Legislature to determine how to meet its constitutional duty, but retained jurisdiction over the case to “facilitate progress in the state’s plan to fully implement the reforms by 2018.”

Budgeting for Capital Levies and Bonds
47
For levies passed in 2014, collection begins in 2015
Typically collect 53% in Spring and 47% in Fall
For newly passed levies, your 2014-15 budget will only include the spring collection.
The 2nd year, 2015-16 will include 100% of annual levy
Capital Levies
48
Example:$5.0 Million levy over 4 years = $20Million$5.0 x 53% = $2,650,000 = 2014-15 revenue
$5.0 x 53% = $2,650,000 plus$5.0 x 47% = $2,350,000
Total = $5,000,000 = 2015-16 revenue
Capital Levies
49
Technology Levies have special rules Beginning in 2008, OSPI required that
expenditures on staff training and software related to technology systems must be spent in the General Fund
Capital Technology Levy revenue then must be transferred from the Capital Projects Fund to the General Fund to cover the costs
You will see this in the presented budget as a transfer out of capital and a revenue in GF
Technology Levies
50
100% of Revenue and Expenditures are in Capital Projects Fund
Facility Levies
51
Great news – you passed a bond!! Determination of when to sell bonds Must be able to spend 85% of proceeds
within 3 years Business Office will work with underwriter
and advisor to sell bonds Board will need to pass resolution Superintendent/Business Office will conduct
call with rating agencies to rate the bonds
Budgeting for Bonds
52
Bonds impact two funds: Revenue from bond sale and construction
expenses go in Capital Projects Fund Principal and Interest Payments on Bonds
are paid out of debt service fund. The presented budget will reflect estimated
amounts if prior to actual sale Will need to levy an amount sufficient to
pay principal and interest
Budgeting for Bonds
53
Voted Debt Limitation
The total indebtedness of a district can not exceed 5% of the value of taxable property within a school district. This includes all non voted debt and all voted debt (bonds).
Voter approved bond capacity may exceed 5% of the district’s assessed valuation but the principal amount of the bond sale is limited to the available debt capacity.
Small school districts may have to structure bond issues and repayments differently than large districts due to the debt limitations.
54
Debt Limit Example Griffin School District AV=$1,300,000,000 5% debt limitation = $65 million Current outstanding voted debt $13 million Current outstanding non voted debt $300K Cost of a new high school $100 million◦ To construct a high school – would likely need to
qualify for state matching funds and would need to ensure funding availability before moving forward. Maximum bond issuance would be about $52 million.
◦ In this scenario, a district could issue ½ and then issue the other ½ in the subsequent year. This would increase the cost of issuance but would likely result in more available capacity (if AV increases and additional existing debt is paid down).
55
Debt Limitations LGOs, lines of credit, capital leases, LOCAL
program obligations, conditional sales contracts, and qualified zone academy bonds are all examples of non-voted debt subject to different rules for use of funds.
All non voted debt above is limited to .00375 (3/8th of 1 percent) of the value of taxable property within the school district
56
Example of a use of non-voted debt Utilizing the State Treasurer’s LOCAL
program, one local district was able to purchase school buses over a 13 year term. They are making payments utilizing state funds from the depreciation schedule.
This funding allowed them to fund buses without utilizing a transportation levy or cutting educational programs.

Bond Levy
58
Front-funding Can you spend dollars from voted levies or
bonds prior to collection? Maybe……. Need to have other reserves Need to clearly track new expenditures
separately Need a clear cash flow plan
59
Front-funding Why you may not want to
◦If use other reserves to front-fund, then those reserves will not be available for emergencies
◦May show negative fund balance line item on your budget – requires additional explanations
Depends on your level of reserves and need to use those reserves immediately for other things
60
For best transparency, sources of funds should be clearly identified.

Has your district engaged in short-tem borrowing?
Has your district experienced recent levy losses?
In your district at its legal debt limit? Has there been a decrease in year end fund
balance levels over the past few years? Have expenditures exceeded revenues over
the past few years?
Indicators of Financial Difficulty
80
Has the district been delinquent in paying: debt?, salaries, payroll taxes, vendor payments?
Is the district involved in pending litigation the could adversely affect its financial condition?
Is enrollment declining? Are the unexplained differences between
budgeted and actual revenues and/or spending? Bargained contracts without a plan to pay for
them?
Indicators of Financial Difficulty
81
As a result of SHB 1431, passed in 2011, OSPI was required to work with ESDs to develop a tool that provides information about the financial health of school districts
OSPI Financial Indicator Model
82
Indicators used in the tool are:◦ Fund Balance to Revenue Ratio - This measure
what percentage of a district’s revenues it current has “in reserve”
◦ Expenditures to Revenue – This ratio measures whether expenditures were greater or less than the amount of revenue the district brought in
◦ Days Cash on Hand – Measures the number of days a district could operate if all funding were to dry up suddenly
OSPI Financial Indicator Model
83
Financial Health Indicators/Weighted Value
Fund Balance to Revenue 45%
Expenditures to Revenue 40%
Days Cash on Hand 15%
OSPI Financial Indicator ModelA value is calculated for each indicator and then given a score (0-4) which is then weighted. The values are then added together to arrive at the district’s financial indicator school for the school year.
