The general requirements for submission of the 2005-2006 Actual Cost per Pupil Report (A4-1/A4-2 forms) are contained in the instructions. Completed worksheets will be due to the department on August 24, 2007. In the past, a number of districts used the Microsoft Excel workbook used by the Department of Education to review A41-A4-2 worksheets and found it useful and efficient. This file is being shared with you under the following terms/circumstances:

• This is an internal document that was developed as a tool to assist in the review of A4-1/A4-2 worksheets, not necessarily for the completion of A4-1/A4-2 worksheets. It is not all-inclusive and must be adapted to the individual needs of each district. Districts are responsible for all formulas and calculations.
• Use of the workbook is not required; you may elect to use it if you find it is helpful.
• The department is not promoting the use of Microsoft Excel.
• No technical assistance will be available. However, general questions related to the completion of the A4-1/A4-2 worksheets can be directed to Heather Leary at 609-984-4945.
