There isn't anything stating this specifically.  As of right now the state
says we need to be included.  We are in DuPage County and worked closely
with our ROE and really it comes down to, there are not state joint
committee "police."  Really the state has too much on their hands - if your
joint committee believes it is not reasonable for you to be responsible for
student growth you don't need to be.

I can talk with you more about this if you like.  You can contact me
directly at shayes at ccsd66.org
