CTE State Priority

The CTE State Priority grant is calculated using CTE student enrollment (75% of total allocation) and related placements (25% of total allocation). For each funding year, enrollment in the immediate prior fiscal year is used, and related placements in the second prior fiscal year are used to calculate State Priority funding.

Enrollment-based Funding (75%) + Related Placement-based Funding (25%) = Total District Funding
