Universal Citation: AR Code § 6-15-2503 (2017)
- (a)
- (1) The Division of Education Renewal Zones, the State Board of Education, and the local school districts shall exercise due diligence to assure, to the extent that funds are available, that each school classified as a school in school improvement under the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, 20 U.S.C. § 6301 et seq., as in existence on December 1, 2003, is included in a designated education renewal zone.
- (2) The state board may promulgate rules establishing criteria for the placement of schools in school improvement in a designated education renewal zone if insufficient funds exist to place all schools in school improvement in a designated education renewal zone.
- (b) At its discretion, the division may include any school regardless of its eligibility under the criteria in § 6-15-2502(d)(3)(C)(i)-(vi) if it determines, on the basis of location, characteristics of its faculty or leadership, needs of the students, or other factors, that the inclusion of such a school significantly strengthens the prospect of the education renewal zone in meeting its school improvement goals.
- (c) At its discretion, the division may change participating schools within each education renewal zone.
