I spoke with Superintendent Tom Luna yesterday and asked him if he would support the Master Advancement Pilot Program (MAPP) written by myself, Steven Thayn, and Rep. Durst of Boise. He said that he was very supportive.
MAPP will be introduced on Monday the 8th in the House Education Committee at 9:00 AM. This will be a print hearing with no public testimony. It is expected to have a committee meeting later in the week. I have been working on the fiscal statement. Part of it reads:
There will little or no negative impact to the State General fund in 2011. After 2011, impact to the general fund will be positive if the following assumptions are met:
1. ADA at $4,593.51
2. 1000 to 1500 seniors participate in the pilot project
50 to 75 (5%) early graduation = $65,000 to $97,000 in savings
100 to 150 (10%) early graduation = $130,000 to $195,000 in savings
200 to 300 (20%) early graduation = $260,000 to $390,000 in savings
300 to 500 (30%) early graduation = $390,000 to $585,000 in savings
