Summary

The board approved policy 1.905 requiring annual on‑track/off‑track notifications to charter schools and reflecting a statutory automatic renewal process for charters meeting high‑performance criteria over multiple years.

The board unanimously adopted policy 1.905, which requires the district to notify charter schools annually whether they are on track or off track in the renewal process and implements a statutory provision for automatic renewal of charters that meet enumerated high‑performance standards over consecutive years. Dr. Sevier told members he believes the charter office is already developing the notification process.

"It requires the district to inform charter schools if they are either on track or off track in terms of the renewal process," Dr. Sevier said, and staff noted that charters that meet a multi‑year high‑performing standard (three consecutive years, as explained in the packet) are eligible for automatic renewal. Board members voted to approve 1.905 without objection. Staff said additional details about the notification procedure are being worked out by the charter office and would be shared as those processes are finalized.
