However, state school aid shall be provided under this act for a minor enrolled as described in this subsection only for curricular offerings that are offered to full-time pupils in the minor's grade level or age group during regularly scheduled school hours.
(2) This act does not prohibit a parent or legal guardian of a minor who is enrolled in any of grades 1 to 12 in a nonpublic school located within the district or who resides within the district and is being home-schooled from also enrolling the minor in the district in a curricular offering being provided by the district at the nonpublic school site.

This subparagraph applies only to instruction, or a portion of instruction, that is specifically included in the written request that was made to the district in which the nonpublic school is located and that was denied by that district.
