Abstract
The task force that established the initial EPS parameters acknowledged that supplies and equipment were necessary for effective teaching and learning, specifically designating equipment and supplies used to support curriculum and instruction, student services, and staff and administrative functions as essential. The initial levels were set for FY2006 at $285 per student in grades K-8 and $430 per student in grades 9-12. Since then the rates have been adjusted for inflation, and by FY2015 the amounts were raised to $355 and $490, respectively. Equipment and supplies were last reviewed using 2010-11 data (Silvernail, 2012).
