Board approves 5 Keys Charter material revision to add Marin and Sonoma sites
Summary
The board authorized a material revision allowing 5 Keys Charter School to operate additional sites in Marin and Sonoma counties to serve jail‑involved adults, following staff presentation and public support from the 5 Keys executive director.
The San Francisco Board of Education voted to approve a superintendent recommendation to grant a material revision to the charter of 5 Keys Charter School that adds sites in Marin and Sonoma counties at the request of local sheriff departments.
Mike Davis, director of policy, planning and charter schools, presented the recommendation; Steve Good, executive director of 5 Keys, described partnerships in other counties and the need to provide educational services to incarcerated and jail‑involved adults who otherwise lack options for GED or high‑school‑equivalency programming.
The board approved the authorization on a roll call vote; no speakers asked for additional conditions. The revision expands the charter operator’s jurisdiction to provide services outside San Francisco county at local correctional facilities.
Board members congratulated 5 Keys on its work and noted the importance of educational access in county jails.
