2004 House Bill 5540

Introduced in the House

Feb. 12, 2004

Introduced by Rep. Clarence Phillips (D-29)

To establish that when a pupil transfers from one school district to another after the official state pupil count day, the former district must pay to the new district a pro-rated share of the per-pupil state school aid grant for that student. Under current law, this requirement only applies to students who transfer to the Detroit School District, or from one of just three districts the receiving district has previously designated.

Referred to the Committee on Appropriations
