SB 147 Public school enrollment of homeless pupils.
Introduced by: Frederick M. Quayle | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Public school enrollment of homeless pupils. Revises various statutes addressing evidence of residence in the school division for public school enrollment. Added to those persons deemed to reside in a school division are those persons lacking a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence and having a primary nighttime residence located within the school division that is (i) a supervised publicly or privately operated shelter designed to provide temporary living accommodations; (ii) an institution that provides a temporary residence for individuals intended to be institutionalized; or (iii) a public or private place not designed for, or ordinarily used as, a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings. Corresponding amendments are made to address those residences that may lie in more than one school division. School divisions may, upon receipt of an affidavit from persons seeking to enroll these pupils in public schools denoting that a street address cannot be provided, accept an alternative address in a form it deems appropriate. In addition, the school division is to refer these pupils, upon receipt of an affidavit from the person seeking to enroll the pupil that the requisite health examination report and records cannot be provided due to the pupil's homelessness, to the county or city health department for the required health examination materials.
