§ 15103. Definitions.
For the purposes of administering the provisions of this chapter and the provisions of Education Code Sections 41376 and 41378, the following definitions apply:
(2) For kindergarten and grades 1, 2, and 3, when it is necessary for a specific group of pupils, consisting of a portion or all of the pupils otherwise enrolled in a “class,” to meet together for a particular period or periods during the regular school day for a particular phase of education for which responsibility is assigned to two or more teachers, or for an extracurricular school activity, such group shall not be considered a “class” under the provisions of this section.
(b) “Regular day class” means a class maintained during the regular school day as defined by the governing board. Classes in special day and evening and summer schools, juvenile hall schools, and classes for the physically handicapped, mentally retarded, severely mentally retarded, educationally handicapped, and mentally gifted are not regular day classes for the purposes of this section.
(e) The “average number of pupils enrolled per class” for grades 1, 2, and 3 is the number obtained by dividing the sum of the quotients derived under subsection (d) for all classes in those grades, by the number of those quotients. The “average number of pupils enrolled per class” for kindergarten is the number so obtained for all classes in kindergarten.
(f) The “total number of pupils enrolled” for grades 4 to 8, inclusive, means the active enrollment, as defined in subsection (c), in those grades at the end of the sixth school month, exclusive of the active enrollment of pupils in grades 4 to 8, inclusive, in classes considered to be of grades 1, 2, or 3 under Section 15102.
(h) One “full-time equivalent classroom teacher” means the period of time the duties under subsection (g) are assigned a classroom teacher equal to the total number of hours designated by a governing board as a regular school day. The period of time less than the regular school day for which a classroom teacher is assigned such duties is that fraction of a full-time equivalent classroom teacher which the period of time bears to a full-time equivalent classroom teacher expressed to the nearest one-tenth (0.1).
