Background: The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) has rules to determine school district eligibility for state funding assistance for school construction. Eligibility for state assistance is based on several factors, including the amount of square footage calculated for instructional space in each school facility. The rules also exempt many areas not related to direct instruction or instructional support.
Summary: OSPI must adopt rules to ensure that a host school district of a shared or co-located facility is not penalized when calculating state school construction assistance.
