(2)(a) The portion of funds that a school district uses for the purposes of ORS 327.865, 327.868 and 327.871 shall be determined as follows:
(A) If a school district receives less than $100,000 for the school year from an apportionment made under ORS 327.859, the school district may use all of the funds for any one of the purposes described in ORS 327.865, 327.868 or 327.871.

(c) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this subsection, if a school district receives an apportionment for the second school year of a biennium that is greater than the apportionment for the first school year of the biennium and the increase would affect the portion of moneys the school district is required to use for the purposes described in ORS 327.865, 327.868 and 327.871, as described in paragraph (a) of this subsection, the school district is not required to change the portions that the school district uses for the purposes of ORS 327.865, 327.868 and 327.871 for the second school year of the biennium.
