SHARED-TIME
AND
PART-TIME
PUPILS
ENROLLMENT.
Under
the
Code
2
provision
used
to
determine
the
certified
enrollments
of
school
3
districts,
the
provision
relating
to
shared-time
and
part-time
4
pupils
from
accredited
nonpublic
schools
who
are
enrolled
in
5
public
schools
to
access
classes
or
services
on
the
accredited
6
nonpublic
school
premises
is
amended
to
add
a
reference
to
Code
7
section
256.12,
which
describes
the
manner
in
which
school
8
districts
may
provide
classes
and
services
to
private
school
9
students
and
receive
funding
for
providing
such
instruction
and
10
services.
11
SCHOOL
DISTRICT
AGENCY
FUNDS.
The
term
“agency
fund”,
12
describing
a
fund
maintained
by
a
school
district,
is
replaced
13
with
the
term
“custodial
fund”.
14
OPEN
ENROLLMENT
REQUESTS
FOR
CHILDREN
REQUIRING
SPECIAL
15
EDUCATION.
Currently,
a
receiving
school
district
need
only
16
grant
the
open
enrollment
request
of
a
child
requiring
special
17
education
if
the
district
maintains
a
special
education
18
instructional
program
appropriate
to
meet
the
child’s
19
educational
needs
and
such
enrollment
would
not
cause
the
20
appropriate
class
to
exceed
the
maximum
class
size
under
rules
21
adopted
by
the
state
board
of
education.
In
addition
to
not
22
causing
the
class
to
exceed
the
maximum
class
size,
the
bill
23
provides
that
the
enrollment
of
the
child
must
not
cause
24
the
caseload
to
exceed
the
maximum
caseload
in
that
special
25
education
instructional
program
under
rules
adopted
by
the
26
state
board
and
there
must
be
sufficient
classroom
space
for
27
the
general
education
classes
to
which
the
child
would
be
28
assigned.
