AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona law to clarify the definition of a "full-time student" for the purposes of calculating Average Daily Membership (ADM), which is a key factor in school funding. Specifically, it updates the requirements for full-day kindergarten programs, ensuring they meet a minimum of 712 instructional hours during the school year to be considered full-time. The bill also makes minor technical changes, such as correcting "e-mail" to "email" in existing statutes related to online instruction. The context for these changes is to ensure accurate reporting and funding for schools offering full-day kindergarten and online learning options.
