7 <br /> Orange County Funded Students (chart) <br /> Orange County Funded Student History (chart) <br /> Commissioner Marcoplos asked if there is any information about the charter school <br /> freeze. <br /> Travis Myren said he does not know why the freeze started, but the reality is that even <br /> though these students are not in the districts' buildings, the districts are required to pay the per <br /> pupil for the students. He said that is a cost that is being incurred by the Districts, as the <br /> County funding stayed the same, but the Charter fees increased. <br /> Bonnie Hammersley said in the 2015-16 budget, she phased in an increase of the <br /> frozen number, plus half of the overage, and the next year they fully funded the overage. She <br /> said this helped the schools to keep the funds they have, and be reimbursed by the County. <br /> She said this has continued since that time. <br /> Commissioner Marcoplos said the County is easing the burden the schools have to incur <br /> for funding charter students. <br /> Bonnie Hammersley said that is correct. <br /> Travis Myren resumed the PowerPoint presentation: <br /> Recommended School Funding <br /> • Operating Budget School Funding — page 151 <br /> • Current Expense $88,829,114 <br /> • Total Projected Students 20,383 <br /> • Total Per Pupil Allocation $4,358 <br /> Recommended School Funding <br /> • Operating Budget Funding Target <br /> o Operating Budget Funding as a Percentage of General Fund Revenue <br /> Recommended School Funding (chart) <br /> • Capital Budget School Funding — page 101 CIP slide 16 <br /> Recommended School Fundinq (bar _graph) <br /> • Total Recommended School Funding History <br /> Recommended School Fundinq (bar graph) <br /> • Per Pupil Allocation History <br /> Recommended School Funding (bar graph) <br /> • CHCCS Per Pupil Allocation History with District Tax slide 19 <br /> Recommended School Fundinq (bar graph) <br /> • Annual Changes in Per Pupil Allocation <br /> o $108 average annual increase since FY2008-09 <br /> Recommended School Funding <br /> • Why a $5.75 Per Pupil Increase slide 21 <br /> o Number of Students Decreased by 25 <br />
