SB 199-VOCATIONAL EDUCATION FUNDING FACTOR 2:16:20 PM CHAIR EGAN announced consideration of SB 199. 2:16:24 PM SENATOR KEVIN MEYER, sponsor of SB 199, said he and Senator Joe Thomas introduced SB 84 last year that created a separate funding factor for vocational education programs for grades 9- 12. Voc-Ed funding was 1 percent of the base student allocation (BSA) and since this bill was signed, the school districts have said it was a good program. The only problem is that it didn't include middle school. So, SB 199 expands the program to include middle school. 2:17:46 PM EDRA MORELEDGE, staff to Senator Meyer, had nothing further to add. 2:18:03 PM SENATOR PASKVAN moved to report SB 199 from committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal note. There were no objections and it was so ordered.
