AB75-ASA1-AA122,66,6 3. If, after conducting the count under subd. 2., the private school determines that one of the following requirements is satisfied, the private school shall establish a bilingual-bicultural education program that complies with the requirements under subd. 4.:

AB75-ASA1-AA122,66,12 a. If, in a language group under subd. 2., there are 10 or more limited-English proficient pupils in kindergarten to grade 3, in attendance at the private school under the program under this section, and whose parents or guardians give written consent to such pupils' placement under subd. 4., the private school shall establish a bilingual-bicultural education program for such pupils during the school term. Such program shall be taught by a bilingual teacher.

AB75-ASA1-AA122,66,18 b. If, in a language group under subd. 2., there are 20 or more limited-English proficient pupils in grades 4 to 8, in attendance at the private school under the program under this section, and whose parents or guardians give written consent to such pupils' placement under subd. 4., the private school shall establish a bilingual-bicultural education program for such pupils during the school term. Such program shall be taught by a bilingual teacher.

AB75-ASA1-AA122,66,24 c. If, in a language group under subd. 2., there are 20 or more limited-English proficient pupils in grades 9 to 12, in attendance at the private school, and whose parents or guardians give written consent to the pupils' placement under subd. 4., the private school shall establish a bilingual-bicultural education program. The program shall be taught by a bilingual teacher. Bilingual counselors shall be made available.

AB75-ASA1-AA122,67,12 4. The private school shall obtain written consent from the parent or guardian of each limited-English proficient pupil before placing such pupil in a bilingual-bicultural education program. A pupil shall be eligible for a bilingual-bicultural education program only until he or she is able to perform ordinary classwork in English. The bilingual-bicultural education program shall be designed to provide intensive instruction to meet this objective. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize isolation of children of limited-English proficient ability or ethnic background for a substantial portion of the school day. Pupils who are not limited-English proficient pupils may participate in a bilingual-bicultural education program, except that the private school shall give preference to limited-English proficient pupils in admitting pupils to such a program.".
