regular average daily attendance for the fiscal year in all school
districts within the county.
(b) "Services ADA" means the countywide ADA plus 12.5 percent of
the number of full-time equivalent students in community college
districts within the county for which the county office of education
provides fiscal and other services.

2563. The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall make the
following calculations for the 1995-96 fiscal year:
(a) For each county office of education, divide its 1994-95
general purpose revenues by its 1994-95 services ADA.
(b) For each class of counties, except Class 1 counties, divide
the sum of the 1994-95 general purpose revenues for all of the county
offices of education in that class by the sum of the services ADA
for all of the counties in that class, and multiply that quotient by
0.88. For Class 1 counties, the amount shall be eighteen dollars and
98 cents ($18.98).
(c) For each county office of education, subtract the amount
determined pursuant to subdivision (a) from the amount determined
pursuant to subdivision (b) of the class of counties of which it is a
member. If this difference is less than zero, it shall be deemed to
be zero.
(d) For each county office of education, multiply the amount
determined pursuant to subdivision (c) by its 1994-95 services ADA.
(e) Divide five million dollars ($5,000,000) by the statewide sum
of the amounts determined pursuant to subdivision (d) and, for each
county office of education, multiply that quotient by its amount
determined pursuant to subdivision (d).

2564. The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall apportion to
each county office of education the amount determined pursuant to
subdivision (e) of Section 2563. That amount shall not be subject to
the deficit factor determined pursuant to Section 2558.45.

2565. For purposes of determining the allowances for each county
office of education pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 2550 for
the 1996-97 fiscal year and for each fiscal year thereafter, the
amount determined pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) of
Section 2550 for the 1995-96 fiscal year shall be increased by the
quotient of the amount received pursuant to Section 2564 divided by
the 1994-95 countywide ADA.

2566. (a) The total amount apportioned pursuant to this article
shall not exceed 5 million dollars ($5,000,000).
(b) This article shall only become operative if the Director of
Finance certifies that a settlement agreement in California Teachers
Association v. Gould (Sacramento County Superior Court Case CV
373415) is effective. No funds shall be disbursed under this article
before August 1, 1996.
(c) For the purpose of making the computations required by Section
8 of Article XVI of the California Constitution, the appropriations
made by this paragraph for the 1995-96 fiscal year shall be deemed to
be "General Fund revenues appropriated to school districts," as
defined in subdivision (c) of Section 41202 for the 1995-96 fiscal
year and be included within the "total allocations to school
districts and community college districts from General Fund proceeds
of taxes appropriated pursuant to Article XIII B," as defined in
