13-13-1.6. Options for state aid, average daily membership, and local effort calculations for certain consolidated school districts--Notification--Limitations. If two or more school districts consolidate, for a period of four years after consolidation, the newly formed district may opt to have its state aid calculated based on the school districts as they existed prior to consolidation. In years two to four, inclusive, after the consolidation of two or more school districts, all factors relevant to the calculation of state aid pursuant to chapter 13-13 of the former districts may be based upon a pro-rata share of the relevant factors of the newly formed district as compared to the relevant factors of the former districts in the first year. Any district that opts to benefit from this section shall notify the secretary of the Department of Education of its intent to do so as part of its reorganization plan. A district that benefits from this section may not benefit from § 13-13-10.1 or 13-13-1.5 simultaneously, or in future years.
