education agencies shall be funded, to the extent provided, by an
addition to the combined district cost of each school district,
determined as follows:
1. For the budget year beginning July 1, 1991, and succeeding
budget years, the total amount funded in each area for media services
shall be computed as provided in this subsection. For the budget
year beginning July 1, 1991, the total amount funded in each area for
media services in the base year, including the cost for media
resource material which shall only be used for the purchase or
replacement of material required in section 273.6, subsection 1,
paragraphs "a", "b", and "c", shall be divided by the
enrollment served in the base year to provide an area media services
cost per pupil in the base year, and the department of management
shall compute the state media services cost per pupil in the base
year which is equal to the average of the area media services costs
per pupil in the base year. For the budget year beginning July 1,
1991, and succeeding budget years, the department of management shall
compute the allowable growth for media services in the budget year by
multiplying the state media services cost per pupil in the base year
times the state percent of growth for the budget year, and the total
amount funded in each area for media services cost in the budget year
equals the area media services cost per pupil in the base year plus
the allowable growth for media services in the budget year times the
enrollment served in the budget year. Funds shall be paid to area
education agencies as provided in section 257.35.
2. Thirty percent of the budget of an area for media services
shall be expended for media resource material which shall only be
used for the purchase or replacement of material required in section
273.6, subsection 1. Funds shall be paid to area education agencies
as provided in section 257.35.
3. For the budget year beginning July 1, 1991, and succeeding
budget years, the total amount funded in each area for educational
services shall be computed as provided in this subsection. For the

the enrollment served in the area in the base year to provide an area
educational services cost per pupil in the base year, and the
department of management shall compute the state educational services
cost per pupil in the base year, which is equal to the average of the
area educational services costs per pupil in the base year. For the
budget year beginning July 1, 1991, and succeeding budget years, the
department of management shall compute the allowable growth for
educational services by multiplying the state educational services
cost per pupil in the base year times the state percent of growth for
the budget year, and the total amount funded in each area for
educational services for the budget year equals the area educational
services cost per pupil for the base year plus the allowable growth
for educational services in the budget year times the enrollment
served in the area in the budget year. Funds shall be paid to area
education agencies as provided in section 257.35.
4. "Enrollment served" means the basic enrollment plus the
number of nonpublic school pupils served with media services or
educational services, as applicable, except that if a nonpublic
school pupil or a pupil attending another district under a whole
grade sharing agreement or open enrollment receives services through
an area other than the area of the pupil's residence, the pupil shall
be deemed to be served by the area of the pupil's residence, which
shall by contractual arrangement reimburse the area through which the
pupil actually receives services. Each school district shall include
in the enrollment report submitted pursuant to section 257.6,
subsection 1, the number of nonpublic school pupils within each
school district for media and educational services served by the
area.
5. If an area education agency does not serve nonpublic school
pupils in a manner comparable to services provided public school
pupils for media and educational services, as determined by the state
board of education, the state board shall instruct the department of
management to reduce the funds for media services and educational
services one time by an amount to compensate for such reduced
services. The media services budget shall be reduced by an amount
equal to the product of the cost per pupil in basic enrollment for
the budget year for media services times the difference between the
enrollment served and the basic enrollment recorded for the area.
The educational services budget shall be reduced by an amount equal
to the product of the cost per pupil in basic enrollment for the
budget year for educational services times the difference between the
enrollment served and the basic enrollment recorded for the area.
This subsection applies only to media and educational services
which cannot be diverted for religious purposes.
Notwithstanding this subsection, an area education agency shall
distribute to nonpublic schools media materials purchased wholly or
partially with federal funds in a manner comparable to the
distribution of such media materials to public schools as determined
by the director of the department of education.
6. For the budget year beginning July 1, 2002, and each
succeeding budget year, notwithstanding the requirements of this
section for determining the budgets and funding of media services and
education services, an area education agency may, within the limits
of the total of the funds provided for the budget years pursuant to

required special education support services in the area education
agency.
