It accomplishes four critical objectives. First, it provides sustainability, predictability and continuity to that funding. Under this bill, no town, city or school district will receive either a greater or a lesser education grant from the state in the coming biennium than they are receiving in the current fiscal year, period. If it passes, the era of dueling spreadsheets will come to an end. This is the single most important aspect of state aid to education - for educators, school bonds and local property taxpayers. Second, this bill calculates the base cost per pupil by using empirical, realistic standards and criteria rather than the exaggerated, inflated criteria currently in law, which merely increases the total amount of state aid. The standards and criteria embodied in this bill are derived from the state department of education minimum standards as promulgated in its rules and from the federal definition of a \"highly qualified\" teacher. Third, as a result of the revised formula for calculating the base cost per pupil, this bill permits significantly increased targeted aid to 59 provide increased resources for those pupils and communities which would most benefit from state aid. It retains the targeted amount for special education and English-as-a-second language students at current levels. It retains targeted funds for students eligible for the federal free and reduced lunch program, but establishes that aid at a fixed dollar amount for each such pupil and distributes that aid based upon the number of students eligible for that program and not for the entire student population in schools which contain a certain percentage of such eligible students. This bill also substantially increases fiscal capacity disparity aid to our most disadvantaged communities. In total, this bill increases the aggregate targeted aid from approximately 25% of total state aid to almost 40%. Fourth and finally, this bill eliminates donor towns. In conclusion, this bill accomplishes all of these objectives without increasing the aggregate state appropriation for education."}], "source": "House Calendar 22, 2011", "date": "2011-03-11", "dated": "printed", "cite": "HC 22", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2011%5CNo%2022%20March%2011%202011.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2011-05-19", "dated": "recorded", "body": "S", "committee": "Finance", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": null, "vote_nays": null, "amendment": "2011-2023s", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 25", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2011%5CNo%2025%20May%2019%202011.pdf"}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "Education - General", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Special Committee on Education Funding Reform", "senate_committee": "Finance", "lsr": "2011-53", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=53&sy=2011&txtsessionyear=2011&txtbillnumber=hb337&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=53&sy=2011&txtsessionyear=2011&txtbillnumber=hb337&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=53&sy=2011&txtsessionyear=2011&txtbillnumber=hb337&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "HC 22", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2011%5CNo%2022%20March%2011%202011.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "HC 23", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2011%5CNo%2023%20March%2015%202011.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 21", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2011%5CNo%2021%20April%2021%202011.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 25", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2011%5CNo%2025%20May%2019%202011.pdf", "kind": "record"}], "amendments": [{"num": "0593h", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2011-03-17", "body": "H", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "2011-0846h", "kind": "Floor Amendment", "where": "floor", "date": "2011-03-17", "body": "H", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "2023s", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2011-05-25", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "2534e", "kind": "Enrolled Bill Amendment", "where": "enrolment", "date": "2011-06-22", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "2011-2534e", "kind": "Enrolled Bill Amendment", "where": "enrolment", "date": "2011-06-22", "body": "H", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}], "billtext": {"version": "Final version", "title": "", "analysis": "This bill:\n\nI.
