it is often expensive to transport students to other towns, she said. Several high school students are education being educated outside the consultant towns. A number of students requiring additional education and consultant services recently moved into the district, increasing costs, Derbyshire said. The special education budget currently has an $87,000 deficit, she said. Thatÿýs why I proposed the budget the way I did tonight. So we wonÿýt have the same situation next year,ÿý education Derbyshire said after the meeting. The proposal is still being developed. Officials have to determine whether the program would be housed at Alvirne High School consultant in Hudson or Campbell High School. There may not be enough education room at Alvirne, Derbyshire said. The School Board voted unanimously Tuesday to throw out its provisional custody policy unless consultant a court orders the policy restored. I think we did the right thing because this was getting out education of hand," said School Board member Doug Hillensbeck,

who brought up the abuses of the school''s policy at a meeting in September. School administrators said last month that some parents have entered into provisional custody agreements with other Ascension residents just so their children could attend the school of that person''s choice. The previous policy allowed parents of the student in question to sign a notarized agreement transferring school-related custody of their children to residents who live in the school district where they want their children enrolled. Hillensbeck and Superintendent Robert Clouatre said last month consultant that school principals reported education to them that students from other parishes, including St. James, Assumption and East Baton Rouge, were attending schools illegally in Ascension. Beginning in the 2001-2002 school year, no one will be allowed to attend school in Ascension outside his school consultant district unless he shows proof of a court-ordered provisional custody agreement.
