| The policy was updated to include the provision of nonpublic, nonsectarian school and agency (NPS/A) services in the comprehensive local plan of the Special Education Local Plan Area. The policy reflects NEW LAW (AB 1172, 2019) which requires districts to verify that the NPS/A provides staff training in the use of practices and interventions specific to the unique behavioral needs of the student population at the NPS/A. This policy also reflects the requirement for the district to pay the full amount of the school's tuition or, as amended by AB 1172, the fees for the agency. The legal cite for Education Code 56366.3 was deleted as it has been repealed. Staff recommends the Board approve revisions to Board Policy (BP) 6159.2: Nonpublic, Nonsectarian School and Agency Services for Special Education. |
