Dear County Office of Education Chief Business Officials:

2024–25 Second Quarter Lottery Apportionment

The State Controller’s Office (SCO) distributed the 2024–25 second quarter Lottery apportionment on March 28, 2025. The total apportioned to county offices of education, school districts, and charter schools is $443,721,762.56. Local educational agencies (LEAs) will receive $366,709,303.93 or $64.58 ($64.578382693) per unit of average daily attendance (ADA) for the unrestricted lottery apportionment, and $77,012,458.63 or $13.56 ($13.562079132) per ADA for the Proposition 20 lottery apportionment this quarter.

The California Department of Education requests that county superintendents of schools inform LEAs immediately of this apportionment. If you have any questions regarding the lottery apportionment, please contact the Categorical Allocations and Audit Resolutions Office by email at CAAR@cde.ca.gov.

Sincerely,
