What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, each school district is required to file an annual report with the Department of Public Instruction (DPI). The report must include the average of the number of pupils enrolled in the district on the third Friday of September and the second Friday of January in the previous school year. The pupil count is used by DPI to compute state aid to the school district.
This bill changes the date of the pupil count in January to the last Friday of that month. The bill makes changes elsewhere in the statutes where the pupil count conducted on those dates is used as an indicator of enrollment in a school district.
