Proffitt, Director Laura Kelly, Governor Division of the Budget February 13, 2025 The Honorable Jason W. Goetz, Chairperson House Committee on K-12 Education Budget 300 SW 10th Avenue, Room 546-S Topeka, Kansas 66612 Dear Representative Goetz: SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for HB 2320 by House Committee on K-12 Education Budget In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning HB 2320 is respectfully submitted to your committee. HB 2320 would establish deadlines for the transfer of records between school districts or across boundaries within a school district when a child in the custody of the Department for Children and Families (DCF) experiences a placement change. The bill would allow enrollment of students in the custody of DCF in any school district in the state and would codify requirements for transportation planning if the best interest determination is made for a child to remain in their school of origin. According to DCF and the Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE), enactment of HB 2320 would have no fiscal effect on the agencies. The two-day turn around required for school districts could require the addition of administrative staff, but KSDE is not able to estimate this potential fiscal effect on districts. Sincerely, Adam C. Proffitt Director of the Budget cc: Kim Holter, DCF Gabrielle Hull, Department of Education
