(a) Programs established under §§ 49-6-103 - 49-6-110 shall be subject to annual appropriations. (b) The commissioner of education shall annually recommend a funding amount per classroom for those classrooms established under §§ 49-6-103 - 49-6-110. The commissioner shall take into account the necessary components required to operate such classrooms and, to the extent such components are also reflected in the Tennessee investment in student achievement formula (TISA), shall include the same costs per component in recommending the amount of funding per classroom. (c) As a condition of receiving state funds for classrooms pursuant to §§ 49-6-103 - 49-6-110, the LEA shall provide a matching amount of funds based on the Tennessee investment in student achievement formula (TISA). In addition, other sources of funds, such as grants, federal funds and private funds may be used by the LEA to meet the matching funds requirement under this section. The LEA may also meet the matching funds requirement under this section through in-kind matches, including, but not limited to, the use of non-LEA owned physical facilities, instructional materials, equipment and supplies, food and nutrition services and transportation services. Funds used by the LEA to meet the matching requirements of this section, regardless of their source, shall not be used in calculating the maintenance of the local funding effort requirement, pursuant to § 49-3-314 . Any local funding shall be subject to annual appropriations by the local governing body. (d) No child shall be required to pay tuition or fees solely for the purpose of enrolling in or attending a pre-kindergarten program established under §§ 49-6-103 - 49-6-110. Nothing in this section prohibits charging fees for childcare that is provided outside the times of the instructional day provided in these programs. (e) No state funds received for pre-kindergarten programs pursuant to §§ 49-6-103 - 49-6-110 shall be used to supplant any other state or local funds for pre-kindergarten programs.
