Career and Technology Education Allotment

Two funding elements determine a district's total Career and Technology Education (CTE) allotment.

School districts are eligible to receive weighted funding for eligible full-time equivalent (FTE) students in approved CTE programs. Districts receive 10 to 47 percent more funding for CTE full-time equivalent students than for regular students per methodology below.

In addition to this weighted funding, school districts are also eligible to receive $150 for each student in average daily attendance enrolled in a ��������-designated P-TECH (grades 9-12).

P-TECH campuses must be designated by �������� and listed on the  website.  Campuses report the students enrolled on the ��������-designated P-TECH campus in TSDS PEIMS submissions 1 and 3 using the TSDS PEIMS indicator E1612.
