When calculating the FTE's, what is typically done for summer months when school is not is session? Do you just figure your FTE's like school is in session, input the number of days of operation (200 or whatever for a school) and ignore the 10 or so FTE's that are their over the summer months (i.e. Janitors, Administrators, etc.)? Or would you include them as transients and just add them to your daily average? I am assuming I should figure my number of transients throughtout a full calendar year and take that daily average as additional FTE's to be spread across the school year (days of operation). Thanks.

David,
Not an expert on LEED for schools, but after conferring with some colleagues I believe you can take this approach.
The FTE can be based on the numbers of days the school is in session and you can ignore the 10 or so FTE from the summer. LEED calculates based on a ratio so the water reduction percentage should be the same if you added in the 10 or so FTE.
