Abstract	Kansas ranks in the top 10 states for graduation rates among students with disabilities. In fact, special education graduation rates in Kansas have improved more than overall graduation rates. And noted earlier in this report, test scores among special education students in Kansas declined just 1% during the pandemic, well below the test score declines among regular education students during the same time period. However, special education state aid is not keeping pace with the cost of providing the services required by federal and state law. School districts must provide these services, regardless of funding provided, forcing districts to shift funding away from general education programs. In 2022, school districts received $163 million less state special education aid than they are supposed to get under state law. This report outlines the full funding of special education in Kansas.
