Slide 3
What is Prototypical School?
• Prototypical school is a fixed theoretical
school size that is used for modeling purposes.
• Replaces the ratio paradigm currently used.
• As adopted in 2776, it is a scalable model.
• Funding formula assumptions are based upon
a prototypical school and assumed class size.
• Class size assumptions are different based
upon grade and subject.

• In reality, school configurations vary widely and are not
always consistent with the prototype model.
• Funding is based upon the student grade level rather than a
school’s classification.
• Prototype allocations will be based on district wide grade
level enrollment.

Class Size to Teacher Conversion
• Converting the assumed class size to actual teachers is
complex and is based upon standard state assumptions
about:
– Student instructional hours per day.
– Teacher planning time:
• Assumed instructional day of 5.6 hours for elementary,
and 6 hours for middle and high schools.
• Assumed planning time 13% or 45 minutes for
elementary, and 17% or 60 minutes for secondary.
– Instructional workload of each teacher.

• Calculated hours above are converted to staffing units
for funding purposes. (Assumed to be teachers.)
• Initially to be funded using statewide staff mix factor, but
could convert to district specific staff mix in the future.
• Designed to be cost neutral.
• Funds must be used for these programs.
• Allocations only; districts decide on appropriate
expenditures within the program to meet student needs.

Slide 16
Categorical Programs
• LAP: Poverty and Bilingual concentration factors are not
continued.
– hold harmless provided to those districts in lieu of
continuation of that formula component.
• Current groups headed by OSPI are developing new
funding formula proposals for programs such as LAP and
TBIP.

Transition of Formula: Hold Harmless
• SHB 2776 states that the Legislature intends that
funding shall not be decreased below current levels.
– Per-pupil basic education funding.
– Funding streams are discretely held harmless.
– At the school district level.

Slide 22
What does this mean to the F-203?
• Many more variables that may be revised under the
“X” option.
• Hold harmless (BEA) will not be a part of the F-203.
• LAP hold harmless can be manually entered based on
calculations from an excel model provided.
• Capacity in this system is greater than expected
implementation will utilize.
• Programers will remain on site during the F-203 roll
out for fixes and trouble shooting.
