A form has been posted on the TEA School Finance Website that can be used by school districts and charter schools that enroll 50 or more students who are evacuees of Hurricane Katrina to report this increase in enrollment. The form must be completed, including the date and signature of the superintendent of the district or CEO of the charter school, in order to be processed. Instructions for submitting this information are included on the form. Forms will be processed at the end of each calendar month, and increases to funding will be reflected on the next regularly scheduled payment from the Foundation School Program. Districts that submit requests for increased funding should expect to receive a survey later in the school year requesting follow up information on the attendance and enrollment of these students. If you have questions about the form or related matters, please contact the State Funding Division at (512) 463-9238.

The form is posted on the TEA School Finance Website at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/school.finance/index.html
