BOCES Electronic Submittal for 2020-21 Cost Reporting Memo
TO: | BOCES Representatives September 7, 2021 |
---|---|
FROM: | Adam Lenhardt, Education Finance Specialist 2 |
SUBJECT: | Paper/Electronic 2020-21 Reports of Final Enrollment, Cost and Refund Information
(including STAC IDs) for Public High Cost Students with Disabilities Initial Submission Deadline 11/12/2021 |
To ensure that school districts report costs accurately, and to ensure that the New York State Education Department reimburses school districts accurately, the STAC/Medicaid Unit requires each BOCES to generate year-end final cost reports on an annual basis.
After the disruptions to the 2019-20 reporting schedule resulting from the COVID-19 public health emergency, we are aiming to return to a normal reporting schedule for 2020-21 enrollment.
