Ed Department to Re-send Some Subsidy Reports

Error affects calculations for about 90 school systems

April 17, 2009

AUGUSTA – The Maine Department of Education announced Friday it will send revised preliminary subsidy reports to about 90 school administrative units after detecting an error in the calculations used to create those reports. The error affects “non-conforming” school units – those units that did not reorganize.

The Department discovered the error on Thursday and is working to complete the corrected calculations by the end of the day and will send revised reports to the affected units only, as the error does not affect calculations for other school systems. A spreadsheet showing the affected units and the amount of change will be posted by the end of business today on the School Administrative Reorganization website at www.maine.gov/education/reorg . The Department regrets the error.
