STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Fifteen

AN ACT requiring inclusion of home educated pupils in the definition of average daily membership in attendance.

Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:

251:1 School Money; Definitions. Amend RSA 198:38, I to read as follows:

I.(a) “Average daily membership in attendance” or “ADMA” means the average daily membership in attendance of pupils in kindergarten through grade 12, as defined in RSA 189:1-d, III of the school year in which the calculation is made, provided that no kindergarten pupil shall count as more than 1/2 day attendance per calendar year.

(b) For the purpose of calculating ADMA, each pupil who is home educated in compliance with RSA 193-A and who is enrolled in a school board approved public high school academic course shall count as an additional 0.15 pupil for each such academic course taken in a public high school. The department of education shall only make grant payments for such pupils to the extent of available appropriations. In this subparagraph, “public high school” shall have the same meaning as “high school” as defined in RSA 194:23.

251:2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.

Approved: July 13, 2015

Effective Date: September 11, 2015
