If the State Board of Education rejects a local board of education reconstitution proposal, school improvement plan, or annual update, or approves the recommendation of the State Superintendent of Schools for State reconstitution of a school, the State Board of Education shall reconstitute the school.
B. Contract With Third Party.
(1) The State Board of Education may order the school to be operated under contract with a third party pursuant to conditions established by the State Board of Education.
(2) The State Board of Education, the local board of education, and the third-party contractor shall be parties to the contract.
(3) The contract may be for an initial term not to exceed 5 years, and may be subject to renewal upon review and approval by the State Board of Education.

| LA | Signed into law 05/2003 | P-12 | Specifies that any elementary or secondary school found academically unacceptable under the state school accountability system must be designated a "failed school." If the local board 1) does not present the state board with a plan to reconstitute the failed school, or 2) presents an unacceptable reconstitution plan, or 3) fails at any time to adhere to the reconstitution plan approved by the state board, or if the school is identified as academically unacceptable for four consecutive years, jurisdiction over the school is to be transfered from the district to that of the Recovery School District, subject to state board approval.
Requires a failed school to be reorganized and operated by the Recovery School District in the manner most likely to raise school performance to an acceptable level as determined by the accountability plan. Requires the Recovery School District to maintain jurisdiction over any school transferred to it until the state board, upon recommendation by the district's adminstering agency, establishes an agreement with the local board to return the school to the local board's jurisdiction. State board must require the RSD's administering agency to seek return of the school to the local district when the school is no longer academically unacceptable. Details components that such agreement must include.
Specifies that when a school transferred to the Recovery School District has been operated by RSD for four years and is still academically unacceptable, state board must 1) Revoke all school approval; 2) Require the Recovery School District to end the operational agreement and offer an alternate operational agreement; or 3) Return the school to the jurisdiction of the local board. Specifies that state board in this case must not take action if the school's performance score in the state accountability system has risen by at least 20 points during the four-year period of Recovery School District oversight. School board may also not take action in any subsequent four-year period in which a school continues to be academically unacceptable if the school's performance score has risen at least 20 additional points. Allows parent or guardian of student assigned to school transferred to Recovery School District to exercise option made available by local board to attend another school in the district.
Requires state board, represented by the superintendent of the Recovery School District, to annually submit a report to the House and Senate education committees that must include specified components.
Establishes Recovery School District, which is to be administered by the state department of education. Gives RSD powers of system school was formerly under the jurisdiction of, but forbids RSD from contracting with any for-profit private provider for either operation or providing instructional services in any school under its authority. Allows RSD to require any local board to provide school or student support services such as transportation, food service or assessment for special education eligibility to students in school transferred from its jurisdiction. Also grants the RSD rights to use buildings and property otherwise part of the school prior to school transfer to RSD. RSD not required to provide extensive building repair that would be considered capital expense, but must provide routine repair and maintenance.
Establishes funding mechanism for Recovery School District and schools under its jurisdiction.
Creates "Type 5" classification for charter schools that are transferred to the Recovery School District. Specifies that only students who would have been eligible to enroll in the school prior to its transfer to the Recovery School District may attend, including any student participating in a school choice program, subject to capacity. Requires all proposals for a Type 5 charter school to be made to the state board. Requires consideration of such proposals to be only upon recommendation of the administering agency of the Recovery School District. Specifies that certain provisions of state law regarding charters do not apply to Type 5 charter schools.
