SB 852 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: the reimbursement rate for special education costs and school age parents programs and making an appropriation. (FE)

SB 852 adjusts the state's reimbursement rate for special education and school-age parent programs costs. For the 2025-26 school year, eligible costs will be reimbursed at 42% of total costs; starting in 2026-27, this rate increases to 45%. The bill directly affects school districts and programs that provide special education services and school-age parent programs under specific statutes. This change modifies how state funds are distributed to cover these eligible costs, without altering the total appropriation amount.
