Apportionment Badge #3 - PowerPoint

Pdf Summary

This document is a training-badge guide on understanding Washington State CTE and Skills Center apportionment reports and related funding calculations. It begins with recommendations for completing the badge series (work sequentially, use a quiet setting, download and review the PowerPoint and referenced materials, have the district Apportionment Report available, and review the recording before the final assessment; learners have 30 days and can contact WASBO for help).<br /><br />The badge focuses on key takeaways: enrollment, funded staff classifications, funded staffing unit calculations, MSOC (Materials, Supplies, and Operating Costs), and compliance items. It reviews key reports: 1251 (enrollment and student FTE), 1191MSCTE (grades 7–8 CTE), 1191CTE (grades 9–12 CTE), and 1191SC (grades 9–12 Skills Center).<br /><br />Core concepts include apportionment vocabulary (planning time, CAS/CIS/CLS staff categories, substitutes, minimum expenditures, and CTE enhancement). The module explains that CTE and Skills Center programs are allocation-based and funded through staffing units (CIS, CAS, CLS), salaries/benefits, professional learning days, and MSOC, with CTE funded at enhancement values rather than basic education values. It walks through how staffing units are generated using enrollment, class-size tables and factors (teachers, other certificated staff, school/central administration, and classified staff), and provides worked examples.<br /><br />Additional sections cover salary maintenance vs. salary increase calculations (including regionalization), insurance benefits (base and increase with health factors by staff type), payroll taxes/benefits rates, professional learning day funding, MSOC rate comparisons (BEA vs. CTE/Skills Center), substitutes, and minimum expenditure considerations (including Running Start and indirect cost allowances). Compliance highlights include charging professional learning expenditures to Activity 34 and carrying over unspent funds. The badge ends with knowledge checks and a final assessment requiring 75% to pass, with limited attempts.
