Alternative school study committee proposed
Rep. Yasmin Neal, a Jonesboro Democrat, has bipartisan support to create a five-member committee of legislators to study the creation of an alternative school for expelled students.
The House Study Committee on Expulsion School Creation, proposed by House Resolution 1277, would look at various models, such as a boarding school, and make any recommendations to the Legislature by the end of this year.
