The Honorable, The Senate:
Enclosed you will find a copy of the report entitled "State-Funded High/Scope All-Day Five-Year-Old Kindergarten Program and State-Funded High/Scope first Grade Program." this report summarizes the projects and the data collected for the 1998-1999 school year.
This report was prepared in response to Sections 119.71, 119.73, and 119.75 of the current state statutes.
Sincerely,

The Honorable, The Legislature:
This report is transmitted as required by sec. 20.002(11)(f) of the Wisconsin Statutes, (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under sec. 13.172(3) Stats.), and confirms that the Department of Administration has found it necessary to exercise the "temporary reallocation of balances" authority provided by this section in order to meet payment responsibilities and cover resulting negative balances during the month of December, 1999.
On December 1, 1999 the Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund balance was -$5 thousand. This Shortfall increase to -$6 thousand on December 6, 1999 and continued into the month of January. As of the date of this letter, it is expected to be resolved in the near future. This shortfall is due to the timing of revenues.
On December 1, 1999 the Wisconsin Health Insurance Risk Sharing Plan Fund balance was -$59 thousand. This Shortfall increase to -$68 thousand on December 15, 1999, to -$77 thousand on December 30, 1999, and continued into the month of January. As of the date of this letter, it is expected to be resolved in the near future. This shortfall is due to the timing of revenues.
The Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund and Wisconsin Health Insurance Risk Sharing Plan Fund shrotfalls were not in excess of the statutory interfund borrowing limitation and did not exceed the balances of the Funds available for interfund borrowing.
The distribution of interest earnings to investment pool participants is based on the average daily balance in the pool and each fund's share. Therefore, the monthly calculation by the State Controller's Office will automatically reflect the use of these temporary reallocations of balance authority.
Sincerely,
George Lightbourn
Secretary
