SUBJECT:
Classroom Supplies Appropriation - Payments and Reports
The State Legislature approved HB105 recently, which changed Classroom Supply funding qualifications and amounts for the 2024-25 school year. As previously explained in JAM, only Classroom Teachers will receive legislative supply funds, however the District will provide School Counselors with $175 “legislative funds” for one more year (2024-25). After this year, School Counselors will not receive these funds.
Please note that Legislative Funds (for teacher supplies and materials) have increased this year as follows:
- Full-time Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade teachers will receive $500
- Full-time 7th through 12th grade teachers will receive $250
- School Counselors will receive $175 for this school year only
- These amounts will be adjusted, based on FTE percentage, for teachers who work part-time
In late September, ACH deposits will be completed to the licensed employees that qualify for legislative supply funds. At that time, schools will also receive a disbursement and FTE report with instructions and helpful information about legislative supply money.
If you have questions, please contact my administrative assistant, Lisa LeStarge, at 801-567-8120 or via email: lisa.lestarge@jordandistrict.org.
