AI Summary

  • Amends Section 15-808 of Arizona Revised Statutes to modify funding and average daily membership calculations for students participating in Arizona online instruction.

  • Full-time online students receive 95% of the base support level funding they would receive in traditional public schools, while part-time online students receive 85% of base support level funding.

  • Establishes apportionment rules: when a student's combined average daily membership between traditional school and online instruction exceeds 1.0, it must be reduced and proportionally divided based on time spent in each program.

  • Requires schools to maintain daily logs documenting instructional time for online students and specifies that average daily membership for part-time students is calculated first for the traditional school before applying remaining membership to online instruction.

  • Defines "full-time student," "part-time student," "online school," "online course provider," and "state-approved charter authorizer" for purposes of Arizona online instruction programs.
