(a) Not later than September 2 of the current license year, the department of education shall transmit to a licensed boarding school an application for the reissuance of a license.

(b) Not later than October 15, the boarding school may submit the application for the reissuance of a license to the department of education. The application shall include a personnel report indicating the qualifications of each member of the teaching staff.

(c) The boarding school may be asked to submit reports of periodic appraisals of its plant, facilities, program, and practices by appropriate educational, health, safety, and welfare agencies as requested by the superintendent of public instruction or his or her authorized representative. The department of education shall review the boarding school's programs to ensure consistency with state standards and benchmarks.

(d) Not later than January 15, the superintendent of public instruction shall notify the boarding school of the class of license for which the school qualifies at that time. If a conditional license is indicated, the superintendent of public instruction shall specify the factors responsible for that class license.

(e) The license for a boarding school shall be reissued not later than June 15 of each year. An applicant school receiving a January 15 notice of conditional license status may submit evidence to alter this status before June 15. If such evidence cannot be presented before June 15, the boarding school may request that its application for license be reexamined, but the corrective action required to remove the conditional status must be taken in the license year.

(f) Not later than January 15 and on June 15, the superintendent of public instruction shall notify a licensed boarding school that its application for reissuance of its license under this rule is denied.
