				210:35-21-2
				to teach in the content area of the course offered, or
2) a faculty member at an accredited
				institution of higher education, possessing the specific content expertise

				  course(s) available to the student. Oklahoma public school students may take
				  supplemental online courses from any online course provider selected and
				  approved by the district that meets the criteria established by the Oklahoma
				  State Board of Education. The school district shall not limit a student's
				  access to supplemental online courses by either policy or application of
				  internal or customary procedures. However, students taking supplemental online

				  more courses per student from any online course provided that meets the
				  criteria established by the Oklahoma state Board of Education. A school
				  district shall provide funding for online courses in an amount not to exceed
				  the previous year's general fund per pupil expenditure. Public school students
				  will be allowed to take up to the academic equivalent of five (5) hours of
				  supplemental online instruction per day at no cost to the student. Districts
				  shall not be required to dedicate more than the pro-rated portion of the
				  previous year's per pupil expenditure towards payment for online courses so
				  that the appropriate portion of funding is allocated to correspond with the
				  number of online course hours the student has enrolled in. Students wishing to
				  take more online course instruction may do so, but the cost to the district for
				  such additional courses cannot exceed the pro-rated portion of the general fund
				  per pupil expenditure for the student. No district will be financially
				  responsible to pay an online course provider for online course instruction
				  expenses incurred by a student that exceeds the pro-rated portion of the
				  general fund per pupil expenditure for the student. The funding restrictions in
				  no way will effect, prohibit or prevent any student from enrolling in
				  additional online courses at the expense of the student or student's parent or
				  guardian. Districts will also bear no responsibility for payment or collection
				  of any outstanding funds or fees owed by a student to an online course
				  provider.

(a)
Policies authorized.
The
				governing body of any public school, charter school, or private school in
				Oklahoma is authorized to adopt policies regarding student internship,
				mentorship, and apprenticeship programs. Such policies may provide for
				participation in the programs by high school juniors and seniors. Policies may
				allow participation in internship, mentorship, or apprenticeship programs to
				satisfy elective course requirements as a student's schedule permits, but a
				student may not use program participation to replace any other state education
				requirement. Any policy adopted by a school's governing body under this
				authorization shall include qualifying criteria that public or private
				organizations must meet to be eligible for an internship, mentorship, and/or
				apprenticeship program agreement.
(b)
Agreements authorized.
Beginning with the 2017-2018 school year, the governing body of each public
				school district, charter school, or private school may enter into an agreement
				with one or more public or private organizations for the purpose of creating
				internship, mentorship, and/or apprenticeship programs as addressed in the
				policies of the governing body. The provisions of 70 O.S. §
									1210.528-1 notwithstanding, a
				school district that has an existing agreement with an outside entity to offer
				internships or similar arrangements as part of an alternative education program
				prior to November 1, 2016 may continue to participate in such existing
				agreements as a component of the district's alternative education
				program.
