What is BOCES aid and how does it work?
BOCES aid is a form of state aid. It reimburses school districts for a portion of their approved BOCES expenditures, including Arts in Education programs. Districts pay for services in a given year and are reimbursed the following year. The amount of reimbursement is based on the district’s state aid ratio and may vary from 30 to 90 percent. The school district business manager should be consulted for precise percentages.
