Notwithstanding subdivision 8, in cases when school is in session but pupils are prevented

from attending for more than 15 consecutive school days during the regular school year or

five consecutive school days during summer school or intersession classes of flexible school

year programs, because of epidemic, calamity, weather, fuel shortage, or other justifiable

cause, the commissioner, upon application, may allow the district to continue to count these

pupils in average daily membership. A lawful employees' strike is not a justifiable cause

for purposes of this subdivision.

(b) For the 2025-2026 school year only, the commissioner must allow a school district

or charter school to continue to count all pupils in average daily membership who were

enrolled in the school prior to November 1, 2025, and have not reenrolled in another
