Section 2550.

For each fiscal year, the Superintendent shall make the following computations to determine the amount to be allocated for direct services and other purposes provided by county superintendents of schools:

(a) For programs operated pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 14054, the Superintendent shall:

(1) Determine the allowances that county superintendents received per unit of average daily attendance in the prior fiscal year. The Superintendent shall increase each amount by a percentage equal to the inflation allowance calculated for the current fiscal year pursuant to Section 2557.

(2) Multiply each amount determined in paragraph (1) by the actual number of units of average daily attendance in the prior fiscal year for programs maintained by each county superintendent. For purposes of this paragraph, the number of units of average daily attendance shall include only units generated by elementary districts with less than 901 units of average daily attendance, high school districts with less than 301 units of average daily attendance, and unified school districts with less than 1,501 units of average daily attendance within each county superintendent's jurisdiction.

(b) For programs operated pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 14054, the Superintendent shall:

(1) (A) For the 1999–2000 fiscal year, determine the rate per unit of average daily attendance calculated for each county office of education pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 2567 and increase each rate by a percentage equal to the inflation allowance calculated in Section 2557.

(B) For the 2000–01 fiscal year, determine the rate per unit of average daily attendance calculated for each county office of education pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 2568 and increase each rate by a percentage equal to the inflation allowance calculated in Section 2557.

(C) For the 2001–02 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, determine the allowances that county superintendents received per unit of average daily attendance in the prior fiscal year. The Superintendent shall increase each amount by a percentage equal to the inflation allowance calculated for the current fiscal year pursuant to Section 2557.

(2) (A) Multiply each amount determined in paragraph (1) by the units of average daily attendance in the current fiscal year for programs for kindergarten and grades 1 to 12, inclusive, maintained by each county superintendent. For the purposes of this paragraph, average daily attendance shall include only the total units of average daily attendance credited to all elementary, high school, and unified school districts within each county superintendent's jurisdiction and to the county superintendent.

(B) For purposes of this paragraph, in each of the 2008–09, 2009–10, 2010–11, 2011–12, 2012–13, 2013–14, and 2014–15 fiscal years, the units of average daily attendance in each of those fiscal years for programs for kindergarten and grades 1 to 12, inclusive, maintained by each county superintendent shall include the same amount of average daily attendance for classes for adults and regional occupational centers and programs used in the calculation pursuant to this subdivision for the 2007–08 fiscal year.
