2. Calculate the amount of federal title I monies received by each school district and charter school in this state during the 2019-2020 fiscal year.
3. For each school district or charter school, determine the percentage of the total amount of federal title I monies received by all school districts and charter schools in this state during the 2019-2020 fiscal year that the school district or charter school received by dividing the amount calculated pursuant to paragraph 2 of this subsection for that school district or charter school by the amount calculated pursuant to paragraph 1 of this subsection.
