advance is not an
obligation of the school
corporation within the meaning of the limitation on or prohibition against indebtedness under the
Constitution of the State of Indiana. Nothing in this chapter relieves the governing body of a school corporation or
charter school receiving an advance of any obligation under Indiana law to qualify the school corporation or charter school for state tuition support. The school corporation or charter school shall continue to perform all acts necessary to obtain these funds.
