right to choose the type of K-12 education that is best for his or her child, whether public

Section 16-22A-2 Legislative intent. Under the National Child Protection Act of 1993, Public
Law 103-209, 42 U.S.C. 5119, et seq., the states are required to implement a computerized
information system to provide child abuse crime information through the Federal Bureau of
Investigation National Criminal History Record Information System and may conduct a nationwide
criminal history background information check for the purpose of determining whether an individual
who will have unsupervised access to children is suitable for employment or has been convicted
of a crime that bears upon the fitness of the individual to teach or have responsibility for
the safety and well-being of children as defined in this chapter. The Legislature finds that
there is a compelling state interest and it is in the best interest of the children of Alabama

Section 16-57-5 Funding from Education Trust Fund. The Legislature finds that Tuskegee University
has a unique relationship to the State of Alabama. The Legislature further finds that due
to the unique nature of the circumstances related to the establishment and development of

from the state and from the state's public colleges and universities, the institution should
be afforded a unique treatment relative to funding from the Education Trust Fund. Tuskegee
Institute was established by an act of the Legislature in 1881 and separately incorporated
by an act of the Legislature in 1892; the Governor appoints five commissioners who serve as
voting members on the Tuskegee Board; and the State Superintendent of Education serves as
an ex officio voting commissioner on the Tuskegee Board. Tuskegee has received appropriations
from the Legislature since 1881. Being a private institution as well as a state...
