Section 392-121-137. Full-time equivalent enrollment of students with a disability.

In determining the full-time equivalent enrollment of students reported as students with a disability pursuant to chapter 392-172A WAC, the following rules apply:

(1) If the student is enrolled exclusively in an ungraded special education program, the student's grade level shall be based on the typical grade level of students of the same age (e.g., a student who is six years old at the beginning of the school year shall be counted as a first grader).

(2) If the student is enrolled in a grade level below the typical grade level of students of the same age, the school district or charter school shall have the option of counting the student in the grade enrolled or the typical grade level of students of the same age.

(3) A student with a disability who is five years old at the beginning of the school year may be counted as a kindergarten student only if the student is enrolled full time (twenty hours or more per week), or is enrolled in a kindergarten program and is provided special education services in addition to the kindergarten program.
