IC 20-43-4-6
Determination; full-time equivalency basis
     Sec. 6. (a) In determining ADM, each pupil enrolled in a public school and a nonpublic school is to be counted on a full-time equivalency basis if the pupil:

            (A) the STEP ONE result; multiplied by

            (A) the STEP THREE result; multiplied by
            (B) one and five hundredths (1.05).

the student has legal settlement for the purposes of computing ADM;
