AI Summary

This bill establishes new procedures for managing student classroom removals in Arizona public schools. If a teacher removes a student from a classroom based on conduct rules, the principal or school administrator can only readmit that student by providing a written certification that specifically states they are authorizing the student's return and describes any disciplinary actions taken. The bill broadly defines "classroom" as any area where scheduled instruction occurs and "rules governing student conduct" to include a wide range of documents like district policies, school procedures, classroom management plans, and student handbooks. This legislation aims to create a more structured and transparent process for handling student disciplinary actions by requiring explicit documentation and communication between teachers and school administrators when a student is temporarily removed from a classroom setting. The bill provides clear guidelines for how schools should manage disruptive student behavior while ensuring that readmission decisions are made with careful consideration and formal documentation.
