The bill amends RCW 28A.510.250 to adjust the state apportionment schedule for schools in Washington, aiming to alleviate cash flow issues faced by educational service districts. The new apportionment percentages for each month are specified, with changes including a reduction in the September, October, November, and May percentages, while increasing the January, March, and July percentages. The revised monthly apportionment percentages are as follows: September (9.0%), October (8.0%), November (5.0%), December (9.0%), January (9.0%), February (9.0%), March (10.0%), April (9.0%), May (6.0%), July (10.0%), and August (10.0%).

Additionally, the bill removes a provision related to a specific adjustment for the 2010-11 school year, which involved a reduction in the June apportionment payment and a subsequent additional payment in July 2011. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2026.
