1. Except as otherwise provided in this section, an elementary school must provide to a pupil enrolled in the school intervention services and intensive instruction if the pupil does not obtain a score in only the subject area of reading on the criterion-referenced examination administered pursuant to NRS 390.105 that meets the passing score prescribed by the State Board.
2. The principal of a school, in consultation with the literacy specialist designated pursuant to NRS 388.159 and any teacher or other person with knowledge and expertise related to providing intervention services and intensive instruction to the pupil:
(a) Shall ensure that the pupil continues to be provided intervention services and intensive instruction in the subject area of reading for as long as it is determined to be necessary while the pupil is enrolled at the elementary school. Such instruction must include, without limitation, strategies based upon evidence-based research that will improve proficiency in the subject area of reading.
(b) May retain the pupil in grade 3 rather than promote the pupil to grade 4 when authorized pursuant to NRS 392.125.
