Section 72-5149 - Same; low enrollment weighting; high enrollment weighting(a) Except as provided in subsection (c), the low enrollment weighting of each school district shall be determined by the state board as follows:(1) For school districts with an enrollment of fewer than 100 students, multiply the enrollment of the school district by 1.014331. The resulting product is the low enrollment weighting of the school district;(2) for school districts with an enrollment of at least 100 students, but fewer than 300 students: (A) Subtract 100 from the enrollment of the school district;(B) multiply the difference obtained under subsection (a)(2)(A) by 9.655;(C) subtract the product obtained under subsection (a)(2)(B) from 7,337;(D) divide the difference obtained under subsection (a)(2)(C) by 3,642.4;(E) subtract one from the quotient obtained under subsection (a)(2)(D); and(F) multiply the difference obtained under subsection (a)(2)(E) by the enrollment of the school district. The resulting product is the low enrollment weighting of the school district;(3) for school districts with an enrollment of at least 300 students, but fewer than 1,622 students: (A) Subtract 300 from the enrollment of the school district;(B) multiply the difference obtained under subsection (a)(3)(A) by 1.2375;(C) subtract the product obtained under subsection (a)(3)(B) from 5,406;(D) divide the difference obtained under subsection (a)(3)(C) by 3,642.4;(E) subtract one from the quotient obtained under subsection (a)(3)(D); and(F) multiply the difference obtained under subsection (a)(3)(E) by the enrollment of the school district. The resulting product is the low enrollment weighting of the school district.(b) For school districts with an enrollment of at least 1,622 students, multiply the enrollment of the school district by 0.03504. The resulting product is the high enrollment weighting of the school district.(c) Any school district that receives the low enrollment weighting and attaches territory of all or part of a disorganized school district or accepts students in the current school year who attended a school building that was closed by another school district pursuant to K.S.A. 72-1431, and amendments thereto, in the preceding school year shall maintain the low enrollment weighting factor such school district received in the school year immediately preceding such attachment or acceptance for the next three succeeding school years or may receive the low enrollment weighting factor determined pursuant to subsection (a), whichever is greater.Amended by L. 2023, ch. 98,§ 16, eff. 7/1/2023.Amended by L. 2018, ch. 57,§ 7, eff. 7/1/2018.Added by L. 2017, ch. 95,§ 21, eff. 7/1/2017.
