Proposed Bill No. 6452 aims to limit the financial burden on local and regional boards of education regarding the outplacement of special education students. The bill stipulates that the cost for such outplacement will be capped at the greater of two times the per pupil cost of the average student in the same grade level within the school district, or three times the per pupil amount for the town under the equalization aid grant formula. Additionally, it mandates that boards of education must pay either one-third of the average cost per special education pupil in that grade or one-half of the per pupil amount for the town, whichever is higher, for students who are home-schooled, enrolled in nonpublic schools, or charter schools, provided these students are testing at grade level.

The bill introduces new legal language to amend title 10 of the general statutes, specifically inserting provisions that establish these cost caps and financial responsibilities. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text provided. The overall purpose of the bill is to create a more manageable financial framework for school districts while ensuring that students in special education programs receive the necessary support.
