eligible for funding under Title I; assignment to a building in “school improvement” status under the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001; teaching in a grade level or subject area in which the board of education has determined there is a shortage within the district; or assignment to a hard-to-staff school, as determined by the board. If the proceeds from the sale of school property is not needed to retire the debt on that property, the proceeds can be used toward the upgrading of technology infrastructure or for the construction or acquisition of permanent improvements. No board, principal, teacher, or class organization may sell school supplies, food, candies, or like supplies for profit on school premises except when the profit is to be used for school purposes or school activities. Unless otherwise specified in the Ohio Revised Code, the term “school day” is defined as the time during a calendar day when a school is open for instruction in accordance with the schedule adopted by the board of education in accordance with ORC 3313.48. If a school is ranked in the lowest 5% of all schools in the state on the annual performance index and meets any combination of the following conditions for three consecutive years:  the school is in either academic watch or academic emergency;  the school has received a grade of “F” for the value-added progress dimension;  the school has received an overall grade of “F” the district board of education must: 1)close the school and reassign the students to other schools; 2)contract with another regular public school district or non-profit or “for profit” entity with a demonstrated record of effectiveness to operate the school; 3)replace the school’s principal and teaching staff, exempt the school from board rules on curriculum and instruction (if requested by the new principal), and provide funding at least equal to the district’s per pupil funding; or 4)reopen the school as a conversion community school. If a district’s voters fail to approve a project within 13 months of approval of the Controlling Board, the project is considered to have “lapsed.” If and when voters later approve the project, the district receives a “priority” for the next available funds. To revive its project after lapse, the board must request that the School Facilities Commission set a new scope and estimated cost for the project based on the district's current wealth percentile and tax valuation. In the case of districts that participated in the Expedited Local Partnership Program and are now eligible for CFAP funding, their respective shares will continue to be based on the percentage specified in their Expedited Local Partner (ELP) agreements. The new scope and estimated costs are valid for one year. The district board must resubmit the project, based on the new estimates, to the district's voters for their approval. However, see SAFE HARBOR above.
