NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

This rule is authorized under Utah Constitution, Article X, Section 3, which vests general control and supervision over public education in the Utah State Board of Education (Board), Subsection 53G-6-503(2), which directs the Board to make rules for students transferring between charter schools and district schools, and enrolling and withdrawing from charter schools; and Subsection 53E-3-401(4), which allows the Board to adopt rules in accordance with its responsibilities.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

There were no written comments received.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule continues to be necessary because it provides procedures for students transferring between district public schools and charter schools; defines capacity in district public schools to allow for transfers into district schools from charter schools; and provides notice to parents and students of schools that have space available. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
