§ 47660 Charter School Funding Exclusion

• •Charter schools get their own money from the state.
• •The local school district doesn’t count charter school kids when figuring out how much money they get.
• •This rule helps make sure charter schools get the right amount of money for their students.

A school district has 1,000 kids in regular schools and 200 kids in charter schools.

When the district asks the state for money, they only count the 1,000 kids in regular schools. The 200 kids in charter schools get their money separately, so the district doesn’t get extra money for them.
