Abstract
The Essential Programs and Services (EPS) funding formula allocates additional resources for each student who is identified as needing supplemental English language instruction. The additional funds are calculated using a weighting procedure that adjusts the student count upward by a certain amount in order to increase the district’s allocation. The weight is an estimate of the added cost of educating EL students relative to their non-EL peers.
