§ 1552. Secondary student tuition

(a) Each technical center shall establish a tuition charge for secondary technical education. The amount shall reflect the actual cost, as defined by rule of the state board, of attendance in the technical courses offered by the center. The tuition charge shall be reduced proportionally for pupils enrolled in a part-time program.

(b) Secondary students are eligible for tuition assistance in technical education provided in another state when the state board determines that such technical education can properly serve the needs of Vermont students.

(c) For students from a school district within Vermont, funds received under subsection 1561(c) of this title shall be subtracted when calculating the tuition charge. For students who are not Vermont residents, funds received under subsections 1561(b) and (c) of this title shall not be subtracted when calculating the tuition charge.

(d) The tuition charged to a school district within Vermont shall be based on the average of the district's three prior years' full-time equivalent student enrollment in the technical center.
