alternative schools, or returning dropouts and dropout prevention shall submit requests
for a modified supplemental amount, including budget costs, to the school budget review
committee not later than January 15 of the budget year preceding the budget year during

committee shall notify the department of management of the names of the school districts
for which programs using a modified supplemental amount for funding have been approved
and the approved budget of each program listed separately for each school district having
