Section XLIII-223 - Joint Establishment of Eligibility

A. General. The LDE may require the LEA to establish its eligibility jointly with another LEA if the LDE determines that the LEA will be ineligible under this Chapter because the agency will not be able to establish and maintain programs of sufficient size and scope to effectively meet the needs of students with disabilities.

B. Charter School Exception. The LDE may not require a charter school that is an LEA to jointly establish its eligibility under Subsection A of this Section unless the charter school is explicitly permitted to do so under the state's charter school statute.

C. Amount of Payments. If the LDE requires the joint establishment of eligibility under Subsection A of this Section, the total amount of funds made available to the affected LEAs shall be equal to the sum of the payments that each LEA would have received under §705 if the agencies were eligible for those payments.
