(2) The existing building or
			 space will be ineligible for any future state funding assistance.
Further, if the existing building or space is subsequently
				returned by the district to instructional purposes in whole or in part, the
				district shall become ineligible for any state funding assistance for a period
				of ten years from the date that the superintendent of public instruction sends
				written notice to members of the local board recognizing the return of the

				state funding assistance as a modernization project.
(3) The superintendent of public instruction
			 may waive the provisions of this section for a period it determines is
			 appropriate to the particular situation. A waiver request must be submitted in

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) Decisions of the superintendent of public
			 instruction on granting remote and necessary status to small school plants
			 within school districts shall be based on a finding that granting remote and
			 necessary status is necessary to assure reasonable provision of a basic
			 education program to students, including related services, equipment, materials
			 and supplies.
(2) In making the
			 finding under subsection (1) of this section, the superintendent of public
			 instruction shall consider, including but not limited to, the factors under (a)
			 through (e) of this subsection. No single factor or combination of factors
			 necessarily warrants granting or denying remote and necessary status. However,
			 it shall be the policy of the superintendent of public instruction to favor
			 those requests which, in the superintendent of public instruction's judgment,
			 meet the provisions of this section. "Favor" does not mean that the listed
			 factors are necessarily exclusive. Additional factors and considerations may be
			 included in a particular request. If there is a factual situation that falls
			 outside the scope of all or a portion of the listed factors, the superintendent
			 of public instruction may consider the facts and reasons the additional factors
			 or considerations support the request.
(a) The
			 student population to be served at the small school site, must meet the small
			 school funding formula for remote and necessary school plants as provided in
			 the Operating Appropriations Act. The grade span served at the small school
			 site shall include the same levels for eligible students established by the
			 district for other elementary, middle, or high schools of the district, and
			 meet the educational needs of the population served by that small school
			 plant.
(b) Existence of an intact,
			 permanent community which is defined as a geographically site-specific,
			 nontransient group of people. This factor must be met.
(c) Transportation: Travel time to another
			 school in the district, or school in another district, is not less than sixty
			 minutes one way, or international boundary crossing processing time is
			 unpredictable or lengthy or both.
(d) Transportation: Student safety from a
			 small school site in the school district to another school in the district, or
			 school in another district, may be at risk due to the condition of roads or
			 waterways, seasonal weather conditions, or topography.
(e) Operational efficiency: Nonavailability
			 of age appropriate grade level or cooperative programs in other school
			 facilities in the district, or in the next nearest district or districts, or
			 other educational organizations approved or recognized by the superintendent of
			 public instruction.
