English language learner students; per-student funding add-on; report. Requires state-funded add-ons to be provided to support English language learner students and requires such add-ons to be calculated by multiplying (i) a weight set forth in the general appropriation act for each English language learner student by (ii) the basic aid per-pupil funding for each such student. The bill requires local funding obligations for such add-ons to be determined by the composite index of local ability-to-pay. The bill also requires the Department of Education to develop and implement a data collection process related to English language learner expenditures and student English proficiency levels and identify other options to support English language learners and provide a status report to the Joint Subcommittee on Elementary and Secondary Education Funding on its implementation and data collection efforts by September 1, 2025.
