Response 36: The where a program is housed does not affect whether the county can count the children. Even before 18-5-44 and Policy 2525 were written, a county school system could count children not housed in a public school building if the teacher was employed by the county. Once again where is not the critical issue. However, there are criteria that must be met for children enrolled in a WV Pre-k program to be counted in the school aid funding formula. A definitive list of those criteria is in development and will be released to counties as soon as it is available.
