Skill: Model enrollment funding
Per-pupil funding means enrollment and ADA are dollars, not just a headcount (§3 #1 #2).
Step 1 — Set enrollment and per-pupil
Enrollment count and the per-pupil funding rate (source + date it, §3 #8).
Step 2 — Apply the ADA rate
Funding scaled by average daily attendance via k12_school_administration_calc.py enrollment-funding (§3 #2).
Step 3 — Value an attendance point
The dollar value of each ADA point — the dual lever (§3 #2).
Step 4 — Frame the retention flow
Mid-year attrition that erodes the funded base (§3 #1).
Output
An enrollment-to-funding read with the per-attendance-point dollar value named. Traverse Tree 1 in the decision-trees file.
