§ 18a:38-13.
No such designation of a high school or high schools and no such allocation or apportionment
of pupils thereto, heretofore or hereafter made pursuant to law, shall be changed
or withdrawn, nor shall a district having such a designated high school refuse to
continue to receive high school pupils from such sending district except upon application
made to and approved by the commissioner. Prior to submitting an application the district seeking to sever the relationship
shall prepare and submit a feasibility study, considering the educational and financial

education received by pupils in each of the districts, and the effect on the racial
composition of the pupil population of each of the districts. The commissioner shall make equitable determinations based upon consideration of
all the circumstances, including the educational and financial implications for the
affected districts, the impact on the quality of education received by pupils, and
the effect on the racial composition of the pupil population of the districts. The commissioner shall grant the requested change in designation or allocation if
no substantial negative impact will result therefrom.
