1. The board of trustees of a school district shall, upon application, allow any pupil who resides on an Indian reservation located in two or more counties to attend the school nearest to the pupil’s residence, without regard to the school district in which the pupil’s residence is located. For the purposes of apportionment of money, if such a pupil attends a school outside the county in which the pupil resides, the pupil must be counted as being enrolled in the district in which he or she attends school.
2. A pupil who is allowed to attend a school outside the school district in which the pupil’s residence is located pursuant to this section must remain in that school for the full school year.
3. The school district which pays the additional costs of transporting a pupil pursuant to this section to a school outside the school district in which the pupil’s residence is located is entitled to be reimbursed for those costs. Such additional costs must be paid from the State Distributive School Account in the State General Fund.
4. The provisions of this section do not apply to a pupil who:
(a) Is ineligible to attend public school pursuant to NRS 392.4675; or
(b) Resides on an Indian reservation pursuant to an order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction in another state adjudging the pupil to be delinquent and committing him or her to the custody of a public or private institution or agency in this state.
