2006 Louisiana Laws - RS 17:101 — Assignment, transfer, and

SUBPART B-1.  ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, AND

CONTINUANCE OF PUPILS

§101.  Findings

The legislature finds and declares that the rapidly increasing demands upon the public economy for the continuance of education as a public function and the efficient maintenance and public support of the public school system require, among other things, consideration of a more flexible and selective procedure for the establishment of schools, facilities and curricula and as to the qualification and assignment of pupils.  

The legislature also recognizes the necessity for a procedure for the analysis of the qualifications, motivations, aptitudes and characteristics of the individual pupils for the purpose of placement, both as a function of efficiency in the educational process and to assure the maintenance of order and good will indispensable to the willingness of its citizens and taxpayers to continue an educational system as a public function, and also as a vital function of the sovereignty and police power of the state.
