The State Controller’s Office (SCO) distributed the 2021–22 fourth quarter Lottery apportionment on September 30, 2022. The total apportioned to county offices of education, school districts, and charter schools is $387,161,063.10. Local educational agencies (LEAs) will receive $185,504,931.05 or $30.06 ($30.059842978) per unit of average daily attendance (ADA) for the unrestricted lottery apportionment and $201,656,132.05 or $32.68 ($32.677037791) per unit of ADA for the Proposition 20 lottery apportionment this quarter.
