[Originating in the Committee on Education]
Requesting the Joint Committee on Government and Finance to
conduct a study on
methods to ensure an accurate and stable
determination of local share
.
Whereas,
An accurate determination of local share is
essential for ensuring that the public school support plan
provides equity in funding among the school systems; and
Whereas,
An accurate determination of local share ensures
that the obligations of state and the school systems both are met
fully; and
Whereas, An accurate and stable determination of local share
that is not subject to large variations due to circumstances over
which the school systems have no control is essential for school
systems to be able to plan and budget resources for their highest
priority needs which may include recurring obligations for items
such as additional salary supplements;

Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the Joint Committee on Government and Finance is hereby
requested to conduct a study on
methods to ensure an accurate and
stable determination of local share
