	Sec. 39.116.  RECONSTITUTION ALTERNATIVE INITIATIVE.  (a)  
In order to prevent dropouts and disruptions that result from 
reconstitution of campuses, the commissioner is not required to 
take action under Section 39.1324(a) during the second consecutive 
school year for which a campus is identified as academically 
unacceptable or, regardless of the continued identification of the 
campus as academically unacceptable, during the third school year 
if:
		(1)  the campus demonstrates improvement, as measured 
from the preceding school year, in relation to performance on the 
indicator or indicators under Section 39.051 on which the 
identification as academically unacceptable for the current school 
year is based; or
		(2)  the identification of the campus as academically 
unacceptable for the current year is based on a single indicator 
under Section 39.051 that:
			(A)  was not a basis for identification of the 
campus as academically unacceptable for the preceding school year; 
and
			(B)  is based on the performance of a group of 
students that is not more than 30 percent of the total campus 
student population.
	(b)  Notwithstanding Section 39.1324(b), a principal who has 
been employed by the campus in that capacity during the period 
described by Subsection (a) and whose campus has not demonstrated 
adequate improvement may not be retained at that campus.
	(c)  Section 39.1324(e) does not apply and closure of a 
campus is not required if the identification as academically 
unacceptable is based on a single indicator under Section 39.051 
that:
		(1)  was not a basis for identification of the campus as 
academically unacceptable for the preceding school year; and
		(2)  is based on the performance of a group of students 
that is not more than 30 percent of the total campus student 
population.
