180 school days with 6 hrs of instruction per day would meet the 180day/1080hr minimum. Q: Do "hours of instruction" include only class time, or all time spent in school?
180 days is 36 five-day weeks or 45 four-day weeks. A full school year.
You could have a full-time school staffed by at least one teacher certificated in each essential subject, and then let it play out organically. Look for "teachable moments" in which to introduce the content which students will encounter on that year's standardized testing. This would likely require at least in 5-6 teachers (English, Math, Social Studies, PE, Foreign Language). To reflect the one-room schoolhouse ideal, we would have 36 students, but break them up into three or four classes. The teachers would float, the students would teach each other. Teachers would deliver lessons as appropriate, or as asked to. They would be research monkeys, supervisors, and role models.
There is nothing in the rules about:

There is nothing in the rules about:
- How the school day is structured
- How classes are organized
- How lessons are taught
- The type of curriculum that must be used
