The bill amends various current law provisions in Chapter 37, Texas Education Code.
The bill would require an open-enrollment charter school that expels a student or removes a student to a disciplinary alternative education program to comply with the provisions of Chapter 37, Education Code. The bill authorizes an open-enrollment charter school that enrolls a student who was expelled or placed in a disciplinary alternative education program by another district to continue the expulsion or placement if the charter school complies with Chapter 37, Education Code. The bill also would amend various provisions concerning the requirements for school district disciplinary alternative education programs (DAEPs) and the circumstances for student expulsions.
This bill requires TEA to include a review of compliance with disciplinary alternative education program requirements in their compliance reviews and on-site monitoring visits. This bill authorizes the commissioner to consider the district’s compliance with disciplinary alternative education program requirements in determining a district’s accreditation rating.
