Early childhood education program units

A. The number of early childhood education program units is determined by multiplying the early childhood education MEM by the cost differential factor 1.44. Early childhood education students enrolled in half-day kindergarten programs shall be counted for 0.5 early childhood MEM. Early childhood education students enrolled in full-day kindergarten programs shall be counted for 1.0 early childhood education MEM. B. For the purpose of calculating early childhood education program units, developmentally disabled three- and four-year-old students shall be counted in early childhood education membership. No developmentally disabled three- or four-year-old student shall be counted for more than 0.5 early childhood education MEM.
