Laws Affecting Students
PDF Files Require Acrobat Reader | Download
Act 1097 of 1995 specifies that school districts teach current Arkansas laws of particular relevance to students in Grades 7 through 12. Ninth-grade civics and 12-grade American government are targeted courses for this purpose, but instruction in the laws may be incorporated into any courses
within these grades.
Decisions of the 2001 Arkansas General Assembly resulted in changes to laws affecting students. The Arkansas Department of Education has issued a newly formatted and completely revised compilation of these laws. The revised 2002 compilation is listed below. A printed copy of this document has been
placed in each of the state's education service cooperatives. School districts should completely replace the previously disseminated compilation with the 2002 version. Also listed below is a revised Table of Contents.
