Kansas Statutes Chapter 72. Schools § 72-263. Same; initial order; review by state board

Whenever a hearing officer appointed under authority of K.S.A. 72-262, and amendments thereto, hears any appeal, case or other matter, the hearing officer, after hearing the same, shall render an initial order which shall be subject to review by the state board of education. Any matter determined by the state board of education in accordance with this section shall be valid to the same extent as if the matter were fully heard by the state board of education without a hearing officer.
