2022–23 First Principal Apportionment

Towards the end of February, county treasurers will receive a warrant that reflects state aid for school districts, charter schools, and county offices of education for programs included in the 2022–23 First Principal (P-1) Apportionment. The California Department of Education (CDE) certified the P-1 Apportionment on February 17, 2023, pursuant to California Education Code Section 41332 in the amount of $48,197,004,723. County superintendents of schools should advise school districts and charter schools immediately of this apportionment. This apportionment includes funding for 2022–23, as well as updated funding for the 2021–22 Annual Apportionment, the 2020–21 Second Annual Recertification, and adjustments to other prior year apportionments, as necessary.

A summary of the calculations that the CDE used in the P-1 Apportionment is available as an attachment to this letter. Funding exhibits and apportionment Excel files that provide detailed funding amounts related to the P-1 Apportionment are available on the CDE 2022–23 Principal Apportionment web page at https://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/pa/pa2223.asp. Additional Excel files for Special Education are available on the Special Education web page at https://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/se/.

The CDE provides funding information electronically via the CDE’s Principal Apportionment Section (PASE) listserv. The listserv provides important information to local educational agencies and other interested parties, such as notifications regarding LCFF updates, web application updates, key deadlines, reminders of due dates for submission of data, and any other pertinent topics related to the Principal Apportionment. If you do not already belong to the PASE listserv and would like to subscribe, send a “blank” message to: join-pase-contacts@mlist.cde.ca.gov.

If you need assistance or have any further questions, Principal Apportionment staff may be reached by email at PASE@cde.ca.gov.
