2006 Louisiana Laws - RS 17:341 — Purpose

SUBPART H.  YEAR-ROUND OPERATION OF SCHOOLS

§341.  Purpose

In order to provide for improved curricula; to promote the maximum utilization of public schoolhouses and other school facilities; to increase the efficiency of administration; and to make possible the realization of the full potential of students and school professionals, the legislature hereby enacts this Subpart for the purpose of providing a program of year-round operation of the public schools of this state.  The legislature finds that the cost of education is substantially increased when many physical school facilities sit idle for three months of the year and that the rural and pioneer conditions which dictated summer closing of public schools no longer prevail in many areas of the state.
