72-3481. Program for education of deaf-blind or otherwise severely handicapped children by state department; expenditures; definitions. The state department of public instruction is hereby authorized to expend available funds for the purpose of sending children who are deaf-blind, or otherwise severely handicapped to any facility, school, or institution, within or without the state of Kansas, providing a qualified program of education for such children.
