## 3. Governing Florida Statutory Framework

| Statute / Rule | Legal Mandate & Mathematical Formula |
| :--- | :--- |
| **`Fla. Stat. § 1011.60(2)`** | Requires **180 actual teaching days** OR the hourly equivalent of **900 net instructional hours** for Grades 4–12 (**720 net hours** for Kindergarten–Grade 3) for full FEFP funding. Formula: $H_{\text{net}} = \frac{(D_{\text{sched}} - D_{\text{storm}}) \times M_{\text{daily}} - H_{\text{early}}}{60}$. |
| **`Fla. Stat. § 1001.42(4)(f)`** | Mandates that no Florida public school may open for regular student attendance earlier than **August 10** of each school year unless the district qualifies under `§ 1003.621`. |
| **`Fla. Stat. § 1003.621`** | Authorizes academically high-performing school districts to establish opening dates earlier than August 10 while preserving the 900-hour instructional floor. |
| **`Fla. Stat. § 1008.34` & `Rule 6A-1.09981, F.A.C.`** | Governs Florida Assessment of Student Thinking (FAST PM1, PM2, PM3) progress monitoring windows and the 62% Grade A school accountability threshold. |
| **`Art. IX, § 1, Fla. Const.` & `Fla. Stat. § 1003.03(1)`** | Enforces core class-size caps: **18 students** in PreK–Grade 3, **22 students** in Grades 4–8, and **25 students** in Grades 9–12. |
