IMPORTANT - New 2024-25 CDE Family Fee Schedule

Please read through the entirety of this article for important details on the updated CDSS Family Fee Schedule 2024-25 in Hubbe. 

In this article, we'll detail the changes to expect in the update, how we're assisting users with the transition to this new fee schedule, and the next steps for notifying families through the NOA.

What's in the new update?

On the morning of 6/28/2024, the new 2024-25 CDE family fee schedule will be released to your Hubbe system. Please refer to the Early Education Division Management Bulletin 24-06 for implementation guidelines with the newly release fee schedule effective 7/1/2024.

Additional Support for these Updates in Hubbe

To provide additional support for these changes, the Hubbe team has:

1. Assigned the new CDE Family Fee Schedule 24-25 to all agency funding contracts with the following subsidy types:
   1. CSPP: California State Preschool Program
2. Updated the recently released Family Fees Comparison report with the new CDE Family Fee Schedule 24-25 to identify families with a reduced fee

Next Steps

Any family who will receive a reduction in fees as a result of the new fee schedule should have their fees reassessed and be notified of the change. To identify these families, users can now generate the Family Fees Comparison report to see a family's fees from one year to the next, and to identify families that would have a reduction in fees. Once those families have been identified, users should update each student's schedule to start on the new family fee schedule in the new year and create a Notice of Action for that change in service. To generate the family fees comparison report, please follow the steps listed below:

1. From the Agency Menu, click on Intake and Eligibility > Family Fees Comparison
2. Select "CDE Family Fee Schedule 23-24" in the Fee Schedule 1 filter
3. Select "CDE Family Fee Schedule 24-25" in the Fee Schedule 2 filter
4. Select "Yes" in the Only show families with reduced fee filter
5. Select any CSPP contracts operated by your agency in the Contract Name filter
6. Click "Apply Filters"
