Section LXXXIII-3303 - Reconfigured Schools

A. Reconfigured schools are identified as schools that change grade configuration, combine two schools with separate sitecodes into one school with a single sitecode, or divide one school into two separate schools with different sitecodes. Data collected at one site shall not be moved to another site and included in accountability results except when two or more schools with dissimilar configurations combine to create one school.

B. Prior to any reconfiguration, the LDE will review the changes to school sites in the planned reconfiguration and will consult with the LEA on the effects that the reconfiguration will have on rewards and/or AUS or subgroup component failure status. After this consultation, the LDE shall make all decisions regarding the effects of these changes on rewards, AUS or subgroup component failure status, and sanctions for all schools effected by the changes and will notify the LEA of its decision. Any AUS, SCF, or AA status and eligibility for participating in any specific programs shall be determined by the LDE.

C. All reconfigurations must be submitted to the sponsor site database before October 1 of the first year of operation under the reconfiguration.

D. High schools with a grade 12 that merge with a school without a grade 12 will retain its graduation data from the prior year.

E. When a high school with a grade 12 merges with another school with a grade 12, the graduation cohort outcome data from both schools will be combined together and recalculated.

F. The LDE will consult with the district concerning the SPS calculation when unusual circumstances or configurations exist.
