- (2) This guideline may be used to compute reasonable recoupment periods according to the length of interruption in an educational program.
(c)
- (1) The length of interruption in instructional programming that causes a detrimental effect may vary, because regression/recoupment patterns vary greatly among similarly disabled children.
- (2) While generalities are helpful, it is imperative that each child's functioning be considered individually.
