In an effort to provide clear communication, increase transparency, and enhance predictability, the Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) and the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Education (DME) have released guidance to charter local education agencies (LEAs) regarding the Uniform Per Student Funding Formula (UPSFF). The guidance letter provides information on school funding for the upcoming school year, including the timeline for quarterly payments (including charter facility payments), supplemental payments, and extended school year (ESY) payments.

Please do not hesitate to contact Deputy Mayor Paul Kihn at [email protected], Acting State Superintendent Antoinette S. Mitchell, Ph.D., at [email protected], or OSSE Administrative Officer Gabriel Montague, [email protected], with any questions.
