4.A. Consider agreement for the purchase of Attendance Credits.
Description:
Chapter 41 of the Texas Education Code requires school districts above a statutory wealth per weighted average daily attendance (WADA) threshold of $319,500 (as of 2006-07) to conduct a process of wealth equalization whereby tax dollars are recaptured by the state in an amount sufficient to attain that prescribed wealth level. WISD’s wealth per WADA as determined by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) for school year 2010-11 exceeds that threshold at $382,195. To accomplish this process of wealth equalization, a contractual agreement between TEA and the district is required. That contract is entitled “Agreement for the Purchase of Attendance Credits” which must be approved by the board and submitted before September 1, 2010.
