| description | Arkansas' new finance law, Act 917, is difficult to understand because it has not been logically organized. This paper explains in detail the following provisions of the law: average daily membership (ADM) computation; local share; minimum and maximum millage; state support (including how priorities are set and the forms of state aid not covered, and how weights are calculated for special, vocational, and alternative education); and teacher salaries. Although it appears that everyone is receiving more money, each district must now pay the employees' share of teacher retirement, health insurance, and all transportation; and districts might receive only Category 1 funds up to 80 percent of the 95th percentile.
