(a) The Legislature hereby grants a waiver from the statute or
statutes indicated for the following school or schools pursuant to

recommending the waiver, with supporting reasons, approved by the

modification or implementation of the described actions which
changes those purposes. However, nothing in this section prohibits
a local school improvement council school that has been granted a
waiver from submitting a request to the Legislative Oversight
Commission on Education Accountability for modifications, subject
to approval in accordance with section three of this article.
