School Finance has identified a bug that is preventing GIFTED ADM from being generated. School Finance is aware of the issue and is currently working with AzEDS IT to resolve it as quickly as possible. Payment 3 will be affected, as a fix will not be implemented by the process deadline. School Finance will post a Hot Topic once the issue is corrected, and no further actions are required for School Districts and Charters. All affected funding will be included in a subsequent payment.

School Finance has completed the FY25 Statewide Recalculation (SRC). Please view the FY25 SRC BSA-55 and corresponding BSA-64 reports on the School Finance website to review these adjustments.
 

The SRC adjustments include specific adjustments for CTEDs regarding 9th grade funding and continuing education (13th grade) funding. These two adjustments are included in the Adjustment Base Support Level (BSL) on the BSA-55 reports.
 

For more information regarding these, please review the following spreadsheets:

•   CTED 9th Grade Funding Adjustment for FY25 SRC
