(a) Once notified that it has been identified for comprehensive support and improvement, each BIE-funded school is required to develop and implement, in partnership with stakeholders (including principals and other school leaders, teachers, and parents), a comprehensive support and improvement plan to improve student outcomes that:

1. (1) Is informed by all indicators described in § 30.111(f), including student performance against BIE-determined long-term goals described in § 30.111(d);
2. (2) Includes evidence-based interventions;
3. (3) Is based on a school-level needs assessment;
4. (4) Identifies resource inequities, which may include a review of school-level budgeting, to be addressed through implementation of such comprehensive support and improvement plan;
5. (5) Is approved by the school and the BIE; and
6. (6) Upon approval and implementation, is monitored and periodically reviewed by the BIE.

(b) In regard to high schools that have been identified as having failed to graduate one-third or more of their students, the BIE may:

1. (1) Permit differentiated improvement activities that use evidence-based interventions in the case of a school that predominantly serves students:

   1. (i) Returning to education after having exited secondary school without a regular high school diploma; or
   2. (ii) Who, based on their grade or age, are significantly off track to accumulate sufficient academic credits to meet high school graduation requirements; and
2. (2) In the case of a school that has a total enrollment of fewer than 100 students, permit the BIE-funded school to forego implementation of improvement activities.
