A governing body of an interim-program school seeking approval or seeking to add grades to a previously approved Interim-program school shall make application on forms supplied by the Department
If it is determined through visitation and reporting that the applicant Interim-program school can comply with the provisions of this Chapter, a recommendation by the Commissioner will be made to the Board that the Interim-program school be granted approval.
Upon favorable action by the Board, the applicant Interim-program school will be granted conditional approval for one school year.
If it is determined by the Commissioner that an Interim-program school has failed to comply with the provisions of this Chapter at any time during the year of conditional approval it shall be just cause, following notice, to initiate proceedings before the Board to immediately terminate the conditional approval.
Continued approval following the initial year of conditional approval is granted for one school year from July 1 to June 30, or less if stated. Renewal of approval is granted based upon the Interim-program school compliance with this Chapter during the prior school year. As detailed in this Chapter, failure to comply with mandatory standards in Section 004.01 may cause an Interim-program school to lose its approval during the school year.
State Department of Education staff shall conduct periodic on-site visits to Interim-program schools to review and determine compliance with the provisions of this Chapter.
