  1 17 .................................................. $    500,000
  1 18    The department of education shall provide for the
  1 19 evaluation of programs and shall establish criteria
  1 20 for a consortium of at least five school districts in
  1 21 collaboration with an area education agency to apply
  1 22 for and for participating school districts to receive
  1 23 moneys from the department for assistance in
  1 24 implementing a pilot student assistance program.
  1 25    Of the moneys appropriated in this section, not
  1 26 more than $50,000 shall be used to evaluate student
  1 27 assistance programs.
  1 28    The department of education shall establish
  1 29 requirements governing the implementation by a
  1 30 consortium of a student assistance program designed to
  1 31 prevent drug and alcohol abuse by children in grades
  1 32 kindergarten through twelve.  Each consortium seeking
  1 33 to implement the program shall provide that
  1 34 participating school districts establish a substance
  1 35 abuse prevention specialist position.  The specialist
  1 36 shall be responsible for implementing the program in
  1 37 the school district, including the development of

  1 39    The purpose of a student assistance team is to
  1 40 provide a means of identifying students' academic and
  1 41 social at-risk behaviors as early as possible and to
  1 42 remediate the behaviors.  Remediation approaches may
  1 43 include but are not limited to linking students with
  1 44 adult or student mentors, tutoring, reading recovery
  1 45 programming, developing appropriate curriculum,
  1 46 promoting activities to build social skills, fostering
  1 47 parental involvement, and encouraging appropriate
  1 48 community activities.  A student assistance team may
  1 49 include school faculty, administrators, other school
  1 50 staff, juvenile court officers, parents, and other
  2  1 volunteers."
