# §39.207. How does OIEP determine a school's funding for the school year?


To determine a school's funding for the school year, OIEP uses the following seven-step process:

- (a) **Step 1.** Multiply the appropriate base academic and/or residential weight from [§ 39.103](/cfr/25/39.103.md) by the number of students in each grade level category.
- (b) **Step 2.** Multiply the number of students eligible for supplemental program funding under [§ 39.107](/cfr/25/39.107.md) by the weights for the program.
- (c) **Step 3.** Calculate the school-based supplemental weights under [§ 639.107](/cfr/25/639.107.md).
- (d) **Step 4.** Add together the sums obtained in steps 1 through 3 to obtain each school's total WSU.
- (e) **Step 5.** Add together the total WSUs for all Bureau-funded schools.
- (f) **Step 6.** Calculate the value of a WSU by dividing the current school year's funds by the average total WSUs as calculated under step 5 for the previous 3 years.
- (g) **Step 7.** Multiply each school's WSU total by the base value of one WSU to determine funding for that school.
