Note:  Consider that there may need to be two or three separate FTE Counts |  | 7.5 | 0.7 | 0.79 | 0.86 | 0.94
1. Is the employee working more than full time?  An example would be filling in for vacancies.  A teacher may be 1.2 FTE. |  | 8 | 0.74 | 0.84 | 0.92 | 1
teacher may be counted as 1.2 FTE if they are using their prep class to teach or an after school class.
This is necessary for correct per pupil ratios.  A consideration is extra duty hours and pay.

In some cases, two part-time employees are sharing 1 full health insurance policy, and paying the difference.

substitute teachers.  How many full time and part time staffing positions are being filled by permanent staff
