regulates interscholastic conferences or events is prohibited from imposing eligibility requirements on nonpublic school or homeschooled students that conflict with the provisions above. If an employee (other than a license holder) is convicted of or pleaded guilty to: a felony; a violation of ORC 2907.04 or 2907.06 or of division (A) or (B) of section 2907.07; an offense of violence, theft offense, or drug abuse offense that is not a minor misdemeanor; or a violation of a municipal corporation ordinance that is substantively similar to a felony, that individual is ineligible for employment in the school district without rehabilitation. A person who has been found eligible for intervention in lieu of conviction or who has agreed to a diversion program is treated the same as if the person had been found guilty or had pleaded guilty. A board of education can be required by the state board of education to establish a school breakfast and/or lunch program if at least 20% of the students in that building are eligible under the National School Lunch Act and the Child Nutrition Act of 1966. The school district must also operate one of the following nutrition programs for any summer intervention that it offers: extension of school breakfast program; extension of school lunch program; or summer food service program. A board of education may determine that it cannot comply with the above requirements for financial reasons. Districts may then not comply if the board of education communicates, in a manner it deems appropriate, its decision to district residents. A board of education may not refuse to comply if: 1) at least one-half of the parents of students have requested a school breakfast program; or 2) at least one-third of the students are eligible for free meals. However, if a district cannot provide the service but is subject to the requirements, the district board of education can apply to the state board for an extension of time to implement. One “good cause” for an extension of time is the “economic impossibility of compliance.” In all cases, a board may establish a charge for its breakfasts, lunches, or snacks in accordance with federal rules. However, that charge may not be assessed to those students eligible for free and reduced price food, Before entering upon the duties of office, each member shall take the oath of office. It may be administered by the treasurer or any continuing member of the board to newly elected and appointed members. For a complete list of such disqualifying offense, please see Appendix U.
