Adds provisions amending the School Code. Increases to $2,500 from $2,000 the maximum reimbursement over one per capita tuition charge for providing extraordinary special education services. Provides for reimbursement for teachers, school psychologists, professional workers, and a qualified director who furnish special education services in a recognized school to children with disabilities based on 22% of the State's average teacher salary (rather than on a flat-rate of $8,000). Eliminates provisions authorizing proportionate payment of claims for reimbursement for providing special education services. Requires all special education reimbursement to be made at 100%, and provides for payment in a succeeding fiscal year (before payment of current claims for that succeeding fiscal year) if the amount appropriated in a fiscal year is insufficient to provide for full reimbursement of all filed claims. Adds a July 1, 1997 effective date. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1 (State Bd. of Ed.) Because of the reimbursement nature of these programs, fiscal impact will not occur until FY99. Cost will be approximately $112 M for personnel reimbursement, full funding and extraor- dinary services. STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1 (SBE) No change from SBE fiscal note.
