§395. Statement of purpose
A. The purpose of this Part is to provide supplemental funds for the delivery of
supplemental remedial instruction adapted for those eligible students in the elementary and
secondary schools of this state as set forth in the city and parish school board pupil
progression plans approved by the State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education. A
program of remedial education shall be put into place by local parish and city parish school
systems following regulations adopted by the state Department of Education and approved
by the state board pursuant to R.S. 17:24.4. All eligible students shall be provided with
appropriate remedial instruction.
B. Student mastery of grade appropriate skills remediated in English language arts
and mathematics shall be evaluated in terms of mastery criteria established through the city
and parish pupil progression plans as approved by the department and state board. Beyond
the goal of achievement in grade appropriate skills, additional goals of this Part are to give
students a sense of success, prevent their alienation from school, and prevent their early
departure from school.
C. Instruction in the state-funded remedial program shall be based on student deficits
as identified through the state testing program in English language arts and mathematics.
Included in the instruction shall be the mastery of the prerequisite skills in the areas of
deficiency.
D. The parish and city school boards shall develop, as part of their pupil progression
plans, mastery criteria based on the state board-approved Louisiana state standards. These
mastery criteria shall be used in determining the extent of student achievement in those grade
appropriate skills of English language arts and mathematics in which he was found deficient.
The parish and city school boards shall describe the methods used to measure student
achievement of these criteria.
E. Each student achieving mastery criteria shall continue receiving instruction for
maintenance of grade appropriate skills. The amount of instruction shall be based upon
student need.
