BPS External Funds Hearing Overview-May 4, 2015
FY16 Budget Recommendation

External Funds
FY16 External Funds

External funds are both a cause and a solution to our structural
imbalance

Reductions grant funding put pressure on the general fund where
the reduction in funding would harm an essential program or
service

The food services program has required a subsidy from the
general fund for many years, where in most districts, the program
operates within the funds generated from federal reimbursement

Private funding (through the Boston Educational Development
Fund or “BEDF”) and partnerships provide additional resources

External Funds
FY16 External Funds

FY16 grant funding projections total $119.7M, which represents a
decrease of $15.1M or 11.2% over the FY15 external funds total of
$134.8M.

Decreases are largely due to historical downward trends in big
entitlement grants like Title I, II, III, IDEA, and Perkins.

Decreases are also due to the end of the Investing in
Innovation (I3) grant and the loss of the Title I carry forward
from FY14 used in FY15.

Food Services is making adjustments to reduce costs to within
expected revenue

We are expecting an increase in resources through BEDF in FY16

We are leveraging 3 times the funding paid to partners in services
provided to BPS students by those partners

Title I Changes/Impacts
External: Anticipated change due to ESEA reauthorization:
Title I funding is up for reauthorization this year and is currently moving to the
Senate floor. The amendment seeks to change the Title I funding formula
and the result of this would be a dilution of these scarce federal funds
starting in FY17; and the inability of the district and individual schools to
provide programs of sufficient size and scope to produce results.
Internal: Change in how Poverty is calculated:
For the 2013-2014 school year, Massachusetts began participating in the
Community Eligibility Option (CEO), which allows schools to provide meal
service to all students at no charge, regardless of economic status. As a
result, household applications that have generally been used to determine
eligibility for free and reduced lunch prices are no longer being collected.
This change meant that for FY16 BPS needed a new method for calculating
poverty for allocating both Title I and WSF dollars.

Grants
FY15 Title I Carry Forward
Title I and Title II-A grants are able to access a multi-year feature to extend the life of
the grants into the next fiscal year. Funds from Year 1 can be shifted into year 2 and
spent on Title eligible activities.
BPS takes advantage of this availability by using carry forward dollars to leverage
turnaround efforts with our most critical activities. This is a one-time source of revenue
based on an evaluation of the use of funding in the current year and a determination
that funds could be best utilized by targeting specific activities in year 2.
We evaluate our programs and activities every year and shift funding to achieve
district goals and priorities.
