Relating to calculating max number of students at alternative and year-round schools
This bill changes how West Virginia calculates enrollment for state funding at alternative and year-round schools. Instead of using standard enrollment figures, it requires using the school's maximum enrollment date multiplied by 1.5 (150%) to determine funding eligibility. This adjustment ensures these schools receive funding based on their highest student count during the year, rather than average enrollment. The change directly affects alternative schools and year-round programs when calculating their state education funding.
