New Mexico Statutes Chapter 22. Public Schools § 22-30-9. Department evaluation of programs

By the end of the 2028-2029 school year and at least every five years thereafter, the department shall evaluate all full-time distance learning programs to certify that the programs are in compliance with the Public School Code and related rules, including provisions related to instructional hours, class load and teaching load limits.  If the department determines that a full-time distance learning program was not in compliance during the period preceding the evaluation, the department may withhold up to one hundred percent of allotments of funding for distance learning students from the school district or state-chartered charter school that operates the full-time distance learning program until the local superintendent or head administrator submits, and the department approves, a plan by which the school district or state-chartered charter school will come into compliance with the Public School Code and related rules.
