A desired range for the minimum number of students and an upper limit for that maximum number of students which teachers shall have in their regular classes shall be established by the Superintendent in conjunction with Cabinet-level staff.

The Superintendent shall prepare guidelines for class size. Maximum limits shall take into account:

 

A.

subject matter;

     
 

B.

ability of students;

     
 

C.

help of aides;

     
 

D.

use of special facilities and equipment.

Teacher load shall be allowed to rise somewhat above the desired maximum in cases of a temporary enrollment bulge, but the student/teacher ratio shall not average more than 25/1.
