  Provided, Further, That the "School Building Aid"
appropriation, after being appropriately adjusted, shall be

school districts of the State until approved for use in
accordance with Section 59-21-350 of the Code of Laws of 1976.
  Provided, Further, That the amount appropriated in this section
for Attendance Supervisors shall be used for the payment of
salaries of one supervisor for each county at the rate of $9,830
each per year plus the base pay increases awarded to state
employees. In the absence of a County Board of Education or with
the approval of the County Board of Education in multi-district
counties, the salary will be proportionately distributed among
the districts of the county on the basis of the 35-day enrollment
of the prior year, provided that such funds must be used for
supervision of the Attendance Program.
  Provided, Further, That the amount appropriated in this section
for County School Lunch Supervisors shall be used for the payment
of salaries of one supervisor for each county at the rate of
$9,830 each per year, plus the base pay increase awarded to state
employees, and no such salary shall be supplemented from funds
provided in this section for "School Lunch Program Aid". In the
absence of a County Board of Education or with the approval of
the County Board of Education in multi-district counties, the
salary shall be proportionately distributed among the districts
of the county on the basis of the 35-day enrollment of the prior
year, provided that such funds must be used for the supervision
of the School Food Service Program.
  Provided, Further, That for the fiscal year 1981-82 the local
supplement to salaries of county School Lunch Supervisors and
School Attendance Supervisors shall not be reduced below
supplements paid in 1980-81.
  Provided, Further, That for the fiscal year 1981-82 the
compensation of school bus drivers shall be three dollars and
thirty-five cents ($3.35) per hour or the Federal Minimum Wage,
whichever is less. Children employed when parents are elected or

  Provided, Further, That the amounts appropriated under "State
Employer Contributions" in this Section for "Health Insurance--
Public School Employees" shall be expended by the Budget and
Control Board to provide group health, life, and accidental death
and dismemberment and disability insurance for active employees
of public school districts of South Carolina and their eligible
dependents, in accord with such plans as may be determined by the
Budget and Control Board to be equitable and of maximum benefit
to those covered.
  Provided, Further, It is the intent of the General Assembly
that the appropriation contained herein for "Health
Insurance-Public School Employees" shall not be utilized to
provide insurance for any totally federally funded school
district employees. In the case of partially federally funded
school district employees, the "Health Insurance" appropriation
may be utilized for the payment of the health insurance of the
nonfederal portion of the employee's salary.
  Provided, Further, that notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, beginning in 1981-82, the amounts appropriated in this
section under "State Employer Contributions" for State
Retirement, Group Life Insurance, Social Security, and Health
Insurance for Public School Employees shall be the total amount
provided for these purposes, herein, and shall be the maximum
paid to the aggregate of recipients.
  Provided, Further, That the State Department of Education shall
develop and implement an internal system of accounting and
allocating the appropriation contained herein for "Fringe
Benefits-Public School Employees." The system shall internally
allocate the appropriation to the school districts or educational
subdivisions and shall be based on the formula as submitted by
the Committee to Study State Educational System.
  Provided, Further, That the Department of Education shall be
directed to equitably re-allocate such excess funds as may accrue
to certain school districts to the benefit of those school
districts receiving insufficient funding under this formula.
  Provided, Further, That in the event the Department of
Education is notified that an educational subdivision will expend
for fringe benefits, more than the allocation under the system by
either the Retirement Division or State Personnel Division, the
Department of Education is directed to withhold the districts'
allocation of state funds in amounts sufficient to meet the
districts fringe benefit obligations.
  Provided, Further, The amount appropriated in this Section for
"Education Finance Act" shall be the maximum paid under the pro-
visions of Act 163 of 1977 (the South Carolina Education Finance
Act of 1977) to the aggregate of all recipients. The South
Carolina Education Department shall develop formulas to determine
the State and required local funding as stipulated in the South
Carolina Education Finance Act of 1977. Such formulas shall
require the approval of the State Board of Education and the
Budget and Control Board.
  To the extent possible within available funds, it is the intent
of the General Assembly to provide for a fifty percent (50%)
phase in implementation rate during 1981-82 of the Education
Finance Act. The base student cost at full implementation is
determined to be $986 which figure includes an inflation rate of
8% for fiscal year 1981-82.
  In the event that the formulas as devised by the Department of
Education and approved by the State Board of Education and the
Budget and Control Board should provide for distribution to the
various school districts totaling more than the amount
appropriated for such purposes, subject to the provisions of this
proviso, the Department of Education shall reduce each school
district entitlement by an equal percentage so as to bring the
total disbursements into conformity with the total funds
appropriated for this purpose. If a reduction is required in the
State's contribution, the required local funding may be reduced
by the same percentage. The Department of Education shall
continually monitor the distribution of funds under the
provisions of the Education Finance Act and shall make periodic
adjustments to disbursements to insure that the aggregate of such
disbursements do not exceed the appropriated funds.
  Provided Further, That Instructional staff as stated in Section
4, Subsection (2) of Act 163 of 1977 shall mean certified
classroom teachers, school librarians and school guidance
counselors paid by state and local funds on a full time
equivalent basis.
  Provided, Further, That funds previously received by the South
Carolina Department of Youth Services from the South Carolina
Department of Education for programs now being consolidated under
the South Carolina Education Finance Act of 1977 will be
disbursed to South Carolina Department of Youth Services by the
Department of Education from the appropriation provided in this
section and entitled "Education Finance Act". The amount to be
disbursed to South Carolina Department of Youth Services will be
sufficient to produce funds equal to the product of the number of
students served by Youth Services weighted according to the
criteria established by the South Carolina Department of
Education under the provisions of the South Carolina Education
Finance Act of 1977 and the state portion of the appropriated
value statewide of the base student cost. The South Carolina
Department of Youth Services shall comply with the following
provisions of Act 163 of 1977 (The Education Finance Act).
Section 5, paragraphs (3) and (4); Section 6, paragraphs (1),
(2), (3a), (4b, c, d, e, and f). The South Carolina Department of
Education annually shall determine that these provisions are
being met and include its findings in the report mandated in
subsection (5) (e) of Section 6 of Act 163 of 1977. If the
accreditation standards as set forth in the Defined Minimum
Program for South Carolina Department of Youth Services as ap-
proved by the State Board of Education are not met, funds by this
proviso will be reduced the following fiscal year according to
the provisions set forth in the South Carolina Education Finance
Act of 1977.
  Provided, Further, That it is the intent of the General
Assembly that the ADM Pupil-Teacher ratio for grades 1 through 3
stipulated in the Education Finance Act of 1977 he implemented to
the extent possible on an individual class basis and that the
pupil enrollment in these grades should not exceed 28 pupils in
each class.
  Provided, Further, That funds in the amount of $155,000.00 will
be disbursed to S. C. State College from the appropriation
provided under Program VII of this section "Education Finance
Act" for the operation of the Felton Lab School.
  Provided, Further, That the amount appropriated herein for
School Lunch Program Aid shall be divided among the County Boards
of Education of the State upon the basis of the number of schools
participating in the School Lunch Program in each county during
the school year 1980-81. Provided, Further, That the travel
expenses of the County School Lunch Supervisor shall be paid from
this appropriation at the prevailing rate of mileage allowed by
the State. Provided, Further, That these funds may be used as an
aid in improving the School Lunch Program. At the close of each
fiscal year, the governing board receiving these funds shall
submit to the State Superintendent of Education an itemized
statement indicating the disposition of funds allotted under this
appropriation including balances carried forward from the
preceding year. Records of the disposition of these funds shall
be kept available for auditing by the State Department of
Education. Provided, Further, That in the absence of a County
Board of Education in multi-district counties, the funds will be
divided among the school districts of the county on the basis of
the number of schools participating in the School Lunch Program
in each district during the school year 1980-81.
  Provided, Further, That no pupil shall be refused lunch because
of inability to pay, such inability to be determined by the local
school superintendent and lunch room supervisor where the pupil
attends.
  Provided, Further, That in the distribution of State funds
provided in this section, no pupil shall be counted as enrolled,

However, That a pupil shall be counted as enrolled only in the
first district, or operating unit, he legally attended.
  Provided, Further, That notwithstanding the amount appropriated
in this section for "School Building Aid", it is the intent of
the General Assembly that this appropriation shall be the
equivalent of the sum of (1) Thirty ($30.00) Dollars multiplied
by the number of pupils enrolled in the public schools of the
state and who have attended school for at least 35 days in the
school year 1980-81 and (2) Fifteen ($15.00) dollars multiplied
by the number of pupils enrolled in the state-financed
Kindergarten program. In the event the amount appropriated is
more or less than the sum of the pupil computations, the
appropriation in this section for "School Building Aid" shall be
appropriately adjusted.
  Provided, Further, That the State Department of Education is
hereby authorized to sell used school buses that may be
determined to be no longer safe or economical in transporting
school children, and the proceeds of such sales shall be remitted
to the General Fund.
  Provided, Further, That there may be expended from funds appro-
priated for free textbooks whatever amount is necessary for the
repair, testing, redistribution and preservation of used
textbooks.
  Provided, Further, That the State Department of Education is

to the General Fund.
  Provided, Further, That the State Department of Education shall

Code and no School district shall suffer liability for
designation of such area as within the authority of said section
or for failure to designate any area as hazardous.

  Provided, That the amount appropriated in this Section for
"Blind Placement Bureau" is conditional upon the receipt of
federal matching funds in the amount of $15,000.
  Provided, Further, That it is the intent of the General
Assembly that the School for the Deaf and Blind pursue
reimbursement from the Federal Government via Medicaid Title 19
for its multi-handicapped students and for any deaf and/or blind
students who would be eligible. In order to facilitate the
maximum utilization and receipt of federal funds, the School is
authorized to dedicate an appropriate amount of state dollars to
provide the match for the Medicaid funding; and, further, to take
such action as is needed to meet minimum certification standards
for an ICF-MR facility at the Multi-Handicapped School. The
Budget and Control Board is further authorized to make such
transfers within the budget of the School for the Deaf and the
Blind as may be requested by its Board, in order to facilitate
receipt of medicaid funds. Subject to the approval of the Budget
and Control Board and the Joint Appropriations Review Committee,
the School may utilize any state funds which may be released as a
result of receiving the federal match in such a way as to promote
appropriate programs for the deaf, blind and multi-handicapped
students of the School; provided, however, that such funds shall
not be used to increase personnel, except as necessary to meet
the standards for ICF-MR specified by the Department of Health
and environmental Control and as approved by the Personal Service
Financing and Budgeting Committee. Provided, further, that all
utilization of funds for Capital Improvements shall have the ap-
proval of the Joint Bond Review Committee.
  Provided, Further, That in order to facilitate the recruitment
of a new president, the South Carolina School for the Deaf and
the Blind is authorized to increase the salary of the president
up to $42,000 for Fiscal Year 1981-82, with the approval of the
Budget and Control Board.
