  (2)  A student's comparable statewide assessment performance if such student transferred from another state;

  (3)  The district's overall reported remediation rate under section 173.750; and

  (4)  A student's attendance rate.

  3.  Each school district shall adopt a policy to permit the waiver of the requirements of this section for any student with a disability if recommended by the student's IEP committee.  For purposes of this subsection, "IEP" means individualized education program.
