Latest version.
  • 1. The principal teacher of the Indian
      schools on each reservation shall  supervise  the  enforcement  of  this
      article  within  said  reservation  and  shall  appoint,  subject to the
      approval of the commissioner of education, and remove at  pleasure  such
      number  of  attendance  officers  as the commissioner of education shall
      deem  necessary,  whose  jurisdictions  shall  extend  over  all  school
      districts  on  the  reservation for which they shall be appointed.  Such
      principal teachers are also vested with the same power and authority  as
      the attendance officers appointed by them.
        2.  If  the  education  of Indian children of the reservation shall be
      provided pursuant to  the  provisions  of  subdivision  two  of  section
      forty-one  hundred  one  of  this  chapter,  the  attendance  officer or
      officers of the school district  providing  such  education  shall  have
      jurisdiction  over  all  Indian  children  on  the  reservation.    Such
      attendance officers shall not, however, be entitled to receive from  the
      commissioner  of  education the payment for services provided in section
      forty-one hundred fourteen of this chapter.
        3. The commissioner of education may appoint and  remove  at  pleasure
      such  attendance  officers  as  he  shall deem necessary, who shall have
      jurisdiction over  all  children  other  than  Indian  children  on  the
      reservation for which they shall be appointed.  Such attendance officers
      shall  receive such sum per day or part thereof as shall be fixed by the
      commissioner of education for  each  day  or  part  thereof  necessarily
      employed  as  such  attendance  officers.    Compensation  of attendance
      officers herein provided for shall be audited  by  the  commissioner  of
      education  and  paid  in  the  same  manner  as  other expenses incurred
      pursuant to this article.
