Summary


This rule is established from parts of Rule R277-417 dealing with LEAs supervision and monitoring of contracts to provide assurance regarding compliance that are being moved into their own rule (R277-115). This rule is focused on LEAs and third party providers. This rule clarifies that LEA contracts with third party providers must include language whereby the third party provider shall provide, upon request of the LEA, information necessary for the LEA to verify that the educational good or service is in compliance with statute and Board rule. This requirement adds specificity for compliance of third party providers, but LEAs were already required to ensure compliance so the only substantive change may be additional language in contracts between LEAs and third party providers.
