§ 15.1-23-11 — Home education - Standardized achievement test - Results

1. A parent supervising home education shall file the results of the child's standardized
achievement test with the superintendent of the district in which the child resides or
with the county superintendent if the district does not employ a superintendent.
2. If the child's basic composite score on a standardized achievement test is less than
the thirtieth percentile nationally, a multidisciplinary assessment team shall assess the
child for a potential learning problem under rules adopted by the superintendent of
public instruction.
3. If the multidisciplinary assessment team determines that the child is not disabled and
the child's parent wishes to continue home education, the parent, with the advice and
consent of an individual who is licensed to teach by the education standards and
practices board or approved to teach by the education standards and practices board,
shall prepare a remediation plan to address the child's academic deficiencies and file
the plan with the superintendent of the school district or with the county superintendent
if the district does not employ a superintendent. The parent is responsible for any costs
associated with the development of the remediation plan. If the parent fails to file a
remediation plan, the parent is deemed to be in violation of compulsory school
attendance provisions and may no longer supervise the home education of the child.
