FROM: | John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | SB618 by Shapleigh (Relating to the consequences of a public school's being considered low-performing. ), As Passed 2nd House |
The bill requires school districts in which campuses are being reconstituted to pay the costs associated with state intervention. Affected districts may incur costs associated with placing teachers not retained at a reconstituted campus in other district positions. The cost to districts will vary considerably and depend first on the number of campuses identified as low-performing by the state's new accountability ratings system, which is scheduled for deployment in September 2004. Affected district costs also would vary based on the degree and length of the state's intervention and the resulting district actions.
