§ 37-7-327. Establishment and operation of orphanage public school.
The school board in any county in which is located an orphanage with fifty (50) or more children of educable age residing therein, at any regular or called meeting, may in its discretion establish an orphanage public school, said school to embrace only such territory owned and occupied by such orphanage, for such orphanage children, provided that a majority of the board of trustees or directors of such orphanage first petition the school board in writing to so establish a public school. Such school when established shall be designated as an orphanage public school.
After such school is established and before a public school is opened, the management of such orphanage must first tender to the superintendent of schools a satisfactory building and educational equipment for said school and enter into a contract with the superintendent of schools agreeing to furnish such building and equipment and to provide for its upkeep, fuel and such other things necessary for the successful operation of the school plant.
When an orphanage public school is established under this section and the conditions as set forth above are met, the superintendent of schools shall have all children of educable age residing in such orphanage enumerated in the manner as is now prescribed by law. Said orphanage public school shall receive financial support from any and all sources from which public school districts now receive support under the law except from funds derived from local tax levies. Said funds shall be paid into the school district depository to the credit of that orphanage public school fund and the same are to be paid out upon presentation of the superintendent's pay certificate.
An orphanage public school shall be under the direct control of the school board.
This section shall not be construed to repeal any other law or to abridge the rights and privileges heretofore exercised by the children of any orphanage.
