Section 387.286 - Pupil receiving individual instruction at home or in medical facility

1. A pupil who has an illness or a disability which dictates that the requirement of compulsory attendance be fulfilled by individual instruction at home or in a medical facility under the supervision of a licensed teacher employed by the school district shall be deemed enrolled within that district if he or she is scheduled to receive at least 5 hours of instruction per week directly from the supervising teacher in the form of individual tutoring. The tutoring may be conducted by means of electronic telecommunication.

2. Each hour of teaching devoted to the individual instruction of the pupil is equivalent to a full day of attendance. More than 1 day of attendance may be accumulated during a single instructional session of more than 1 hour, but the number of days of attendance reported for the pupil for that school year may not exceed the minimum number of days of free school required by NRS 388.090.

3. A pupil with a disability receiving instruction pursuant to this section must receive the type and duration of instruction specified in the pupil's individualized education program, and all reporting of enrollment and attendance must be based upon the requirements of that program.

4. The pupil may be reported monthly as enrolled and in attendance at the school he or she would normally attend, or a separate monthly report may be submitted, marked "Individual Tutoring at Home or in a Medical Facility."
