1) Capture the relative cost of serving students in different disability categories
2) Identify costs of serving students in potentially new disability categories (Autism, ADHD, LD categorized as Other)
3) Provide data in a clear and transparent way that will ultimately inform new weights for the funding allocation formula
Study Goals
Overall Goals of the Study are to…
History of Studies Determining Costs
1991 Study
2000 Study
Study Goals
“Allocating Funds for Disabled Student Programs and Services: Disability Group Rates and Other Funding Issues”
“Services to Students with Disabilities: A Study of Workload and Costs”
Cost of each Service Contact = Who provided the service and how long was the service contact
Ways of Determining Costs
Cost to serve students with disabilities in a specific category =
Sum of the cost all students with disability XNumber of students
Ways of Determining Costs
Historical Data
