50 Equitable Share Budgeting Private School Share Public School Share Total Set Aside Amount In our previous example $150,000 is the total parental involvement set aside. $3,576 is the private school share. $146,424 would be budgeted for public school parental involvement and $3,576 for private school $425,000 is the TOTAL amount set aside for the Other Instructional Setasides. Therefore, $10,133 is the calculated private school share while $414,867 would be budgeted for the public schools. NOTE: Each of the set asides should be distributed based on the calculated Proportionate Share ( ) 50
