Establishes an enrollment stabilizer mechanism in the Public School Support Program to ensure budget predictability.

The bill introduces an enrollment stabilizer mechanism in the Public School Support Program to provide greater predictability and stability in county budgets. It aims to smooth the impact of year-to-year enrollment changes used to calculate state aid. The net enrollment for calculating state aid will be the greater of the actual net enrollment for the most recent school year, 98 percent of the prior year’s net enrollment, or a three-year rolling average of net enrollment.
