Terms Used In Indiana Code 20-37-2-1

  • Corporation: A legal entity owned by the holders of shares of stock that have been issued, and that can own, receive, and transfer property, and carry on business in its own name.
(2) the elementary principles of mechanical construction;

(3) mechanical drawing; and

(4) printing.

     (b) If a system is established, the governing body shall employ competent instructors in the various subjects and shall establish rules and regulations on student admissions designed to produce the best results and to give instruction to the largest practicable number. A governing body may provide this instruction in school buildings or in separate buildings. Each governing body may:

(1) require students enrolling in this system to pay a reasonable tuition fee; and

(2) differentiate between students living in the attendance unit and those living outside the attendance unit in the amount of tuition charged.

However, tuition charges by a school corporation operating under IC 20-25-3 and IC 20-25-4 are also regulated by IC 20-25-4-17.

     (c) Each governing body must provide equal access to students who attend a charter school or state accredited nonpublic school utilizing the same admittance practices that are currently in place if the charter school, state accredited nonpublic school, student, or school corporation (if the student is a dual enrollment student) provides the governing body tuition for the student, which may not be greater than the per capita cost of operating the system of industrial or manual training. However, the admission of a charter school or state accredited nonpublic school student may not result in the denial of a placement for a student enrolled in the school corporation or an entity established under IC 20-37-1-1.
