- Most categorical programs received the 4.53
COLA, dollars available are constant - Final funding for many categorical programs is
not known until late fall or winter we operate
programs under the assumption that funding will
be sufficient based on information received - It is not uncommon to have to eliminate staff or
reduce programs in the Spring due to shortfalls
in categorical funding - One-time funds can not be used to address
on-going program or staffing issues may only
allow District time for future planning.
