-eleven or twelve or in the school year immediately following graduation and who
-is enrolled in a course that meets for at least one hundred fifty minutes per
-class period at a centralized campus shall be 0.75. To qualify for
-funding pursuant to this subsection, a centralized campus shall offer programs

-week and at any time between July 1 and June 30 of each fiscal year. Average
-daily membership shall not be calculated on the one hundredth day of
-instruction for the purposes of this section. Average daily
-membership shall be calculated by dividing the instructional hours of
-enrollment by six hundred hours, except that:
-
-1. At least one hundred fifty hours and less than
-three hundred hours equals 0.25 average daily membership.

-program provided by a leased centralized campus may generate an average daily
-membership for instruction received during any hour of the day, during any day
-of the week and at any time between July 1 and June 30 of each fiscal
-year. Average daily membership shall be calculated by dividing the
-instructional hours of enrollment by six hundred hours, except that:
-
-1. At least one hundred fifty hours and less than
-three hundred hours equals 0.25 average daily membership.
-
-2. At least three hundred hours and less than four
-hundred fifty hours equals 0.5 average daily membership.
-
-3. At least four hundred fifty hours and less than
-six hundred hours equals 0.75 average daily membership.

-membership for either the career technical education district or the
-accommodation school, or both.
-
-T. Notwithstanding any other law, the student count
-for a career technical education district shall be is equivalent to the career technical education district's
-average daily membership. Students in an approved career technical
-education program provided by a satellite campus, centralized campus or leased
-centralized campus may generate an average daily membership subject to the
-limits prescribed by subsections D, N, O, P, Q and R of this section, as
-applicable, for instruction received during any hour of the day, during any day
-of the week and at any time between July 1 and June 30 of each fiscal
-year. Average daily membership shall not be calculated on the one

-U. A school district or charter school may not
-prohibit or discourage students who are enrolled in that school district or
-charter school from attending courses offered by a career technical education
-district, including requiring students to generate a full 1.0 average daily
