LEP Allowance Expenditure Requirement

2021/22 Calculated Limited English Proficiency Allowance Expenditure Requirement

State Statute 79-1007.09 (2) states, the department shall determine the limited English proficiency allowance expenditures for 2021/22 using the reported expenditures on the annual financial report (AFR) for 2021/22. State Statute 79-1007.09 (3) states, if the limited English proficiency allowance expenditures for 2021/22 do not equal 117.65 percent or more of the limited English proficiency allowance for 2021/22, the department shall calculate a limited English proficiency correction for the 2023/24 state aid calculations. If the limited English proficiency allowance expenditures do not equal fifty percent or more than of the allowance for 2021/22, the school district shall also be disqualified from receiving a limited English proficiency allowance for the 2023/24 state aid year. Please use Function code 1150 for Limited English Proficiency Instructional Programs.

For your information, we have created a report that documents the 2021/22 Calculated LEP Allowance.

School districts can use this report to help determine whether the expenditures reported on the 2021/22 AFR under Function 1150 are 117.65% or more of the 2021/22 Calculated LEP Allowance.
