Official statutory text
cooperative programs.
Recognizing the needs small school districts have to meet
increased high school graduation and college admission requirements,
and the difficulty such districts may experience in offering the
necessary academic courses, the Legislature hereby states its intent
to assist such districts through the creation of incentive grants to
fund cooperative programs. Such grants shall be allocated by the
State Board of Education on a competitive basis to school districts
with an average daily attendance of eight hundred (800) or less, or
to any school district participating in the East Central Educational
Support Center, to enter into an agreement with one or more
districts of any size or an accredited institution of higher
education to provide classes in mathematics, science, a foreign
language, computer education, visual arts or music to elementary or
secondary students. In allocating incentive grants to fund
cooperative programs, the State Department of Education shall give
priority to those programs that emphasize classes required for high
school graduation and college admission. Funding provided in the
grants shall be expended for instruction-related personnel,
equipment, transportation, materials and telecommunications,
including but not limited to telecommunication equipment,
instruction and other materials. Funding provided for grants for
telecommunication shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the funds
provided for all grants specified in this section. No funds
provided shall be used for construction of buildings.
