# Skill: Allocate per-pupil
Rolling last year's split forward freezes resources against last year's problem (§3 #4).
## Step 1 — Set the per-pupil envelope
Total per-pupil dollars available to allocate.
## Step 2 — Identify need
Subgroups, intervention, and attendance recovery with the largest impact (§3 #4 #6).
## Step 3 — Allocate to need
Direct dollars to impact, not history (§3 #4).
## Step 4 — Hold the FERPA boundary
Keep student PII out; route privacy questions to counsel (§2).
## Output
An allocation directing per-pupil dollars to need with the FERPA boundary held.
