OFFICIAL STUDENT COUNT is Wednesday, February 8


Just a reminder that the annual February official student count day is scheduled for Wednesday, February 8.

The calculation and per pupil funding that schools receive each year is based on a blend of both spring and fall student count data. For instance, the 2017-18 “blend” will based on Wednesday’s “spring” count, along with later date to come from a count in the fall.

This year’s per pupil funding was based on a blend of February and October 2016 counts.

Public Schools funding in Michigan is based in part on statewide per-pupil grants. In general, the greater the number of students attending any district, the greater amount of grant money the local system receives from the state. Taylor averages over $7,000 per student in state funding.

Remember: Every student counts!
