Section 22-30.5-523 - Intervention strategies - students at risk of dropping out(1) Each institute charter school that includes any of grades six through nine shall consider adopting procedures to review the relevant data for students in those grades and identify students who are demonstrating behaviors that indicate the student is at greater risk of dropping out of school. The behaviors may include, but need not be limited to, low academic achievement, truancy, insubordinate behavior, and disengagement.(2) The procedures may specify that, after an institute charter school identifies a student as being at increased risk of dropping out of school, the school shall provide appropriate interventions that are designed to assist the student in improving his or her academic performance and behavior and in increasing his or her overall level of engagement in school. Interventions may include, but need not be limited to, counseling, tutoring, parent engagement, and developmental education services.(3) If an institute charter school adopts procedures pursuant to this section, the institute charter school shall notify a student's parents as soon as possible after the institute charter school identifies the student as being at greater risk of dropping out of school. The institute charter school shall provide to the student's parents a description of the interventions that the institute charter school intends to implement for the student, if any. The parent may approve or reject the described interventions. If the parent rejects the interventions, the institute charter school shall not implement the interventions. The parent may terminate the interventions at any time after the institute charter school begins providing the interventions.(4) A parent may contact the institute charter school in which his or her student is enrolled to request interventions pursuant to this section if the parent determines that the student is at greater risk of dropping out of school.L. 2012: Entire section added, (HB 12-1013), ch. 23, p. 60, § 2, effective August 8.
