| 1 | | out-of-school suspensions and expulsions, which must be | 2 | | calculated using the same method as the U.S. Department of | 3 | | Education's Office for Civil Rights uses. | 4 | | The analysis must be based on data collected over 3 | 5 | | consecutive school years, beginning with the 2014-2015 school | 6 | | year. | 7 | | Beginning with the 2017-2018 school year, the State Board | 8 | | of Education shall require each of the school districts that | 9 | | are identified in the top 20% of any of the metrics described | 10 | | in this subsection (b) for 3 consecutive years to submit a plan | 11 | | identifying the strategies the school district will implement | 12 | | to reduce the use of exclusionary disciplinary practices , | 13 | | school-based arrests, or racial disproportionality or both , if | 14 | | applicable. School districts that no longer meet the criteria | 15 | | described in any of the metrics described in this subsection | 16 | | (b) for 3 consecutive years shall no longer be required to | 17 | | submit a plan. | 18 | | This plan may be combined with any other improvement plans | 19 | | required under federal or State law. | 20 | | The calculation of the top 20% of any of the metrics | 21 | | described in this subsection (b) shall exclude all school | 22 | | districts, State-authorized charter schools, and special | 23 | | charter districts that issued fewer than a total of 10 | 24 | | out-of-school suspensions or expulsions or school-based | 25 | | arrests , whichever is applicable, during the school year. The | 26 | | calculation of the top 20% of the metric described in |
| | | 10100HB2084sam002 | - 6 - | LRB101 06951 AXK 60247 a |
|
| 1 | | subdivision (3) of this subsection (b) shall exclude all school | 2 | | districts with an enrollment of fewer than 50 white students or | 3 | | fewer than 50 students of color. | 4 | | The plan must be approved at a public school board meeting | 5 | | and posted on the school district's Internet website. Within | 6 | | one year after being identified, the school district shall | 7 | | submit to the State Board of Education and post on the | 8 | | district's Internet website a progress report describing the | 9 | | implementation of the plan and the results achieved.
