2. Services may include, but are not limited to: student assessment; in-service training; curricular materials sharing; consultation; and program design, development, and evaluation.
C. Notwithstanding any other provision of these regulations, when a student with a disability is admitted to a LSS and receives the majority of educational services from the BSS, the student shall be under the jurisdiction of the LSS, even if the student receives some services from an LEA.
