The Kentucky Center for School Safety (KCSS) Board
of Directors approved a
formula for the distribution of these funds to
all KY school districts beginning in FY 2001.
However, due to current year budget reductions the
Board of Directors has approved a new formula to be
used for the calculation of district allocations in
FY 2009 and is as follows: $9,000 base for each
district with the remaining funds distributed on a
“per pupil” basis. For FY 2009 the per pupil amount
is based on attendance data collected at the end of
the second school month for school year 2007/2008.
The total amount of the safe schools allocation
available for distribution to Kentucky school
districts in FY 2009 is
$3,878,370. Please find in
the “formula” link above a summary of safe schools
allocations by district for FY 2009.
KCSS does request that districts complete the
Safe Schools Allocation Report for FY09 to
update district files. This information will
continue to enable KCSS staff to accurately describe
to various constituency groups the programmatic
services offered with safe schools funds. In
addition to the completion of this report, districts
are required to include a financial summary (final
MUNIS report) outlining the use of their safe
schools funds in FY 2008. Please submit the
completed information to the KCSS office at Eastern
Kentucky University by September 1, 2008.
The Safe Schools funding allocations will again be
included in the Flexible Focus Fund (FFF)
established in 2004 by the KY General Assembly. The
FFF was created to permit local school districts
additional flexibility in the distribution of
program funds while still addressing the statutory
requirements to serve specific student populations.
