This amendment saves $0.5 million the first year and $2.1 million the second year from the general fund by maintaining the current funding formula for the Academic Year Governor's Schools and adding a flat 2.5 percent increase in the tuition amount and a $50.00 per course adjustment per student. These two adjustments are only effective for fiscal year 2017 and fiscal year 2018. The amendment further directs DOE to review the tuition distribution methodology such that the distributions are equitable based on the length of the academic program day.
