Do the funds for the CSR program include a cost-of-living allowance?
Yes – in “normal” years. Education Code Section 52126(e) states that the per pupil amounts for the program be increased annually for inflation. However, no cost-of-living allowance was provided for 2003-04, due to California’s budget crisis. Fortunately, the 2003-04 school year was the exception, not the rule.
