Definition.
A. A parent or guardian of multiple-birth siblings may request that the children attend the same school and be placed in the same
classroom or in separate classrooms if the children are in the same grade level at the same school and meet the eligibility requirements of the class. The school may recommend classroom placement to the parents and provide professional education advice to the parents to assist them in making the best decision for their children's education. A school must provide the placement requested by the children's parent or guardian, unless the district board makes a classroom placement determination following the school principal's request according to this section. The parent or guardian must request the classroom placement no later than fourteen
(14)days after the first day of each school year or fourteen
(14)days after the first day of attendance of the children during a school year if the children are enrolled in the school after the school year commences. At the end of the initial grading period, if the school principal, in consultation with the children's classroom teacher, determines that the requested classroom placement is disruptive to the classroom environment, the school principal may request that the district board determine the children's classroom placement.
B. For purposes of this section, "multiple-birth siblings" means twins, triplets, quadruplets, quintuplets, or higher number of siblings resulting from a multiple birth. Added by Laws 2008, c. 396, § 1.
