4 of section 3602 of the education law, a
school district, other than a special act
school district as defined in subdivision
8 of section 4001 of the education law,
from funds appropriated herein shall be
eligible for total foundation aid equal to
the sum of: (1) the base increase, plus
(2) the community schools increase, plus
(3) the foundation aid base, as defined
pursuant to paragraph j of subdivision 1
of section 3602 of the education law.
(1) The base increase shall be equal to the
greater of the foundation aid per pupil
increase or the scaled per pupil increase.
The base increase shall not exceed the
product of 15 percent multiplied by the
198 12553-02-7
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
AID TO LOCALITIES 2017-18
foundation aid base and shall not be less
than the due minimum increase.
(i) The foundation aid per pupil increase
shall be equal to the product of the
selected per pupil foundation aid increase
as defined herein multiplied by the
selected total aidable foundation pupil
units computed pursuant to paragraph g of
subdivision 2 of section 3602 of the
education law.
(A) The selected per pupil foundation aid
increase shall be equal to the per pupil
foundation increase as defined herein less
the selected local share, with a minimum
of $500 multiplied by the per pupil foun-
dation increase factor, rounded to two
decimals.
(B) The per pupil foundation increase factor
for the 2017-18 school year shall be equal
to 0.01227.
(C) The per pupil foundation increase shall
be equal to the product of (i) the product
of the adjusted cost amount, the regional
cost index, and the pupil need index
computed to two decimals without rounding,
multiplied by (ii) the per pupil founda-
tion increase factor.
(D) The selected local share shall be equal
to the lesser of (a) the product of the
per pupil foundation increase and the
value computed by subtracting from one the
state sharing ratio for total foundation
aid, rounded to two decimals or (b) the
product of the quotient arrived at when
dividing the selected actual valuation by
total wealth foundation pupil units,
multiplied by the product of the income
wealth index multiplied by the local tax
factor multiplied by the per pupil founda-
tion increase factor, provided, however,
that the income wealth index shall not be
less than zero nor exceed 2.0.
(ii) The scaled per pupil increase shall be
equal to the product of $195 multiplied by
the scaled per pupil ratio, multiplied by
the base year public school district
enrollment as computed pursuant to subpar-
agraph 2 of paragraph n of subdivision 1
of section 3602 of the education law. The
scaled per pupil ratio shall be the value
computed by subtracting from two the prod-
uct of 2.15 multiplied by the combined
199 12553-02-7
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
AID TO LOCALITIES 2017-18
wealth ratio for total foundation aid,
defined pursuant to subparagraph 2 of
paragraph c of subdivision 3 of section
3602 of the education law, computed to
three decimal places without rounding. The
scaled per pupil ratio shall not exceed
nine tenths (0.9) or be less than zero.
(iii) The due minimum increase shall be
equal to the product of the foundation aid
base and the due minimum percent. For the
2017-18 school year, the due minimum
percent shall equal: (a) for a city school
district of a city having a population of
1,000,000 or more, 0.0293; (b) for a city
school district of a city having a popu-
lation in excess of 125,000 and less than
1,000,000 inhabitants, 0.02165, and (c)
for all other public school districts,
other than a special act school district
as defined in subdivision 8 of section
4001 of the education law, eligible for
foundation aid, 0.01.
(2) The community schools increase shall be,
for all eligible school districts, equal
to the product of the scaled per pupil
amount multiplied by the base year public
school district enrollment as computed
pursuant to subparagraph 2 of paragraph n
of subdivision 1 of section 3602 of the
education law, but shall not be less than
$150,000.
(i) (A) A school district shall be eligible
for the community schools increase if (1)
the school district contains at least one
school designated as failing or persis-
tently failing by the commissioner pursu-
ant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of subdivi-
sion one of section 211-f of the education
law as of January 1, 2017 or (2) the
school district has both a combined wealth
ratio for total foundation aid less than
1.2 and has a qualifying English language
learner population level.
(B) For purposes of this appropriation, a
qualifying English language learner popu-
lation level shall mean those school
districts where (1) the quotient arrived
at when dividing the English language
learner count by the base year public
school district enrollment as computed
pursuant to subparagraph 2 of paragraph n
of subdivision 1 of section 3602 of the

positive difference, if any, of the
English language learner count less the
amount equal to "2011-12 ENGLISH LANGUAGE
LEARNERS" in the computer listing produced
by the commissioner in support of the
executive budget request for the 2017-18
school year and entitled "BT171-8" is
greater than both (a) 100 pupils and (b)
the product of 0.10 multiplied by the
amount equal to "2011-12 ENGLISH LANGUAGE
LEARNERS" in the computer listing produced
by the commissioner in support of the
executive budget request for the 2017-18
school year and entitled "BT171-8".
(ii) The community schools scaled per pupil
amount shall be equal to the product of
$88.03 multiplied by the difference of
subtracting from one the product of the
combined wealth ratio for total foundation
aid multiplied by 0.64, provided that such
product shall not exceed 0.9 or be less
than zero.
Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision
of law, the community schools increase
shall be added to the community schools
aid set-aside for the 2017-18 school year
pursuant to paragraph e of subdivision 4
of section 3602 of the education law, and
a school district shall use such community
schools increase to support the transfor-
mation of school buildings into community
hubs to deliver co-located or school-
linked academic, health, mental health,
nutrition, counseling, legal and/or other
services to students and their families,
including but not limited to providing a
community school site coordinator and
programs for English language learners,
provided further that a school district
whose community schools increase exceeds
$1,000,000 shall use an amount equal to
the greater of $150,000 or 10 percent of
such community schools increase to support
such transformation at additional schools
with extraordinarily high levels of
student need as identified by the commis-
sioner of education, subject to the
approval of the director of the budget.

from the funds appropriated herein for its

In order to receive such funds, the school

plan by October 1, 2017. Such revised plan

has complied with the approved comprehen-
sive expenditure plan and spent such funds

days from the receipt of such evidence to
confirm whether the school district has
complied with the requirements of chapter
89 of the laws of 2016 and shall determine
whether such funds were spent in conform-
ance with the provisions of such chapter.
Upon finding compliance and determining
that the funds were properly expended, the
commissioner shall certify the amount of
the approved expenditures to the state
comptroller for payment no later than 60
days after such determinations. The East
Ramapo central school district shall not
receive reimbursement for funds authorized
herein that are not spent for the direct
benefit of students attending public
schools in such district in a manner

expenditure plan or prior written approval
from the commissioner.

tion no later than 30 days prior to the

website: the initial proposed budget, the
commissioner's findings, and the final
proposed budget prior to the date of the
school district's budget vote.
The monitor or monitors appointed by the
commissioner shall quarterly, and the
district shall annually provide to the
commissioner reports on the fiscal and
operational status of the school district

requirements herein. In addition, monitors
shall provide an annual report to the
commissioner and comptroller on contracts
that the district entered into throughout
