So, according to DESE web page information, as in Department of Secondary and Elementary Education / as in the commissioner of education, you the one who set the 1/12 budget for Narragansett Regional School district at exactly what they requested, states that each school choice students brings with them $5,000.00 but Narragansett Regional School District spends an average of $8,830.00 per student and Templeton and Phillipston residents are supposed to be happy with this; look at all the students who want to come to NRSD. Hey, you want to have your kids go to "Gansett, move to either Templeton or Phillipston.

FY19 Final School Choice Tuition, June 2019
The school choice assessment and tuition amounts that will be incorporated into the June 30, 2019 local aid distribution have been finalized. On June 30th the State Treasurer's office will process the remaining portion of the annual assessments and tuition, net of the amounts paid in the monthly local aid distributions over the first eleven months of the fiscal year.

If you have any questions about this information, please contact Rob O'Donnell in the Office of District and School Finance at (781) 338-6512 or via email at rodonnell@doe.mass.edu.

School choice tuition rates Download Excel Document are calculated for regular and vocational programs. FY19 school choice tuition rates are set at 75 percent of the FY18 operating cost per full-time equivalent pupil for the receiving school district, with a cap of $5,000. All districts are now at that cap. In addition, the actual special education cost for each pupil with an individualized education plan is paid in full by the sending district. That amount is determined using the same rate methodology for specific services as is used in the special education circuit breaker program.

In prior years, the district summary showed a monthly breakdown of payments and assessments. However, a new report is available from the Division of Local Services that shows the monthly amounts for school choice and all other programs that are included in local aid distribution.

Sending and receiving district staff should review their final school choice rosters and tuition amounts for each student. The information has been placed in the DESE security portal's school choice claim form dropbox. These spreadsheets show each school choice pupil's name, address, enrollment dates, program, tuition and other information. District staff should contact DESE if they feel any of the information is not completely accurate so that follow-up can be done and, if necessary, adjustments can be made during FY20.

I do not want any students name or address, but I believe the total number of receiving school choice and sending school choice students enrollment dates, program tuition, etc should be included in any budget; people paying the bills should have up to date and accurate information and it appears it is available somewhere.
