            (1)    Is a private school;

            (2)    Continues its status as an alternative instruction program and remains subject to the provisions applicable to an alternative instruction program in chapter 13-27;

            (3)    Is not a nonpublic school as defined in § 13-37-35.1 and is not subject to the requirements for nonpublic schools; and

            (4)    Is not subject to any requirements except those applicable to an alternative instruction program.

    Attendance in a dual status program complying with the alternative instruction provisions of chapter 13-27 satisfies the requirements of § 13-27-1. An alternative instruction program may make or revoke a dual status election at any time an excuse pursuant to § 13-27-3 is in effect by sending a written notice to the applicable school board. The notice shall be maintained to the same extent and in the same manner as excuses described in § 13-27-3. The dual status election shall remain in effect until revoked."
