If a unit that serves a student's residence determines that that student would be better served by receiving career and technical education, on a tuition basis, at an out-of-state secondary level career and technical school that is located closer to that student's residence than a Maine center, satellite program or region serving that student's residence, the State shall subsidize the unit the same amount for that student as would have been incurred by such a center, satellite program or region providing the same or similar career and technical education to the student.
