3314.027 Community school sponsorship.
Notwithstanding the requirement for initial approval of sponsorship by the department of education prescribed in divisions (A)(2) and (B)(1) of section 3314.015 of the Revised Code and any geographical restriction or mission requirement prescribed in division (C)(1) of section 3314.02 of the Revised Code, an entity that has entered into a contract to sponsor a community school on April 8, 2003, may continue to sponsor the school in conformance with the terms of that contract as long as the entity complies with all other sponsorship provisions of this chapter. Such an entity also may enter into new contracts to sponsor community schools after April 8, 2003, and need not be approved by the department for such sponsorship, as otherwise required under divisions (A)(2) and (B)(1) of section 3314.015 of the Revised Code, as long as the contracts conform to and the entity complies with all other provisions of this chapter.
Regardless of the entity’s authority to sponsor community schools without the initial approval of the department, each entity described in this section is under the continuing oversight of the department in accordance with rules adopted under section 3314.015 of the Revised Code.
Amended by 128th General Assembly File No. 9, HB 1, § 101.01, eff. 10/16/2009.
