Sec. 19. (a) The department shall list all school corporations in Indiana according to assessed valuation for property tax purposes per student in current ADM, as determined in section 17 of this chapter, beginning with the school corporation having the lowest assessed valuation for property tax purposes per student in current ADM. For purposes of the list made under this section, the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired established by IC 20-21-2-1 and the Indiana School for the Deaf established by IC 20-22-2-1 shall be considered to have the lowest assessed valuation for property tax purposes per student in current ADM during the six (6) year period beginning July 1, 2001.
(b) The department must prepare a revised list under subsection (a) before a new series of grants may begin.
(c) The department shall determine those school corporations to be placed in a group to receive a grant in a fiscal year under sections 13 through 24 of this chapter as follows:
(1) Beginning with the school corporation that is first on the list developed under subsection (a), the department shall continue sequentially through the list and place school corporations that qualify for a grant under section 15 of this chapter in a group until the cumulative total current ADM of all school corporations in the group depletes the money that is available for grants in the fiscal year.
(2) Each fiscal year the department shall develop a new group by continuing sequentially through the list beginning with the first qualifying school corporation on the list that was not placed in a group in the prior fiscal year.
(3) If the final group developed from the list contains substantially fewer students in current ADM than available money, the department shall:
(A) prepare a revised list of school corporations under subsection (a); and
(B) place in the group qualifying school corporations from the top of the revised list.
(4) The department shall label the groups with sequential numbers beginning with "group one".
