(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this code, a
student whose appropriate education program is a regular education
program may receive services and be counted for attendance purposes

participation in a special education program because of the
student's confinement in a hospital; and
(2) the student's education is provided by a district
to which this section applies.
(d) The basic allotment for a student enrolled in a district
to which this section applies is adjusted by:
