(a) Payments under this act of state aid for the provision of special education and related services shall be made in the manner and at such times during each school year as are determined by the state board. All amounts received by a district under this section shall be deposited in the general fund of the district and transferred to its special education fund. If any district is paid more than it is entitled to receive under any distribution made under this act, the state board shall notify the district of the amount of such overpayment, and such district shall remit the same to the state board. The state board shall remit any moneys so received to the state treasurer in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the state general fund. If any such district fails so to remit, the state board shall deduct the excess amounts so paid from future payments becoming due to such district. If any district is paid less than the amount to which it is entitled under any distribution made under this act, the state board shall pay the additional amount due at any time within the school year in which the underpayment was made or within 60 days after the end of such school year. If the amount of appropriations for state aid for the provision of special education and related services is insufficient to pay in full the amount of state aid each school district is entitled to receive for the school year, the state board shall prorate the amount appropriated among all school districts.

(b) The state board shall prescribe all forms necessary for reporting under this act.

(c) Every board shall make such periodic and special reports of information to the state board as it may request in order to carry out its responsibilities under this act.
