House Bill 1934 requiring charter-school data reporting advances from K-12 Subcommittee
Summary
The K-12 Subcommittee adopted an amendment and voted 7–0 to send House Bill 1934 to the full Education Committee. The bill would require the Department of Education to annually collect and publish specified data on opportunity public charter schools.
Chairman Slater, the bill sponsor, told the K-12 Subcommittee that House Bill 1934 is "a very straightforward bill" that "simply requires the Department of Education to annually collect and report specified data on the department's website." The committee adopted amendment 016319, which rewrites the bill, and then voted to move the bill to full education.
The sponsor said the website would set out the data elements described in the bill so the public and authorizers could see consistent information about opportunity public charter schools. No committee members asked substantive questions after the sponsor's explanation. The clerk recorded a 7–0 vote in favor of advancing the amended bill to the full Education Committee.
The subcommittee did not specify implementation dates in the recorded remarks. The bill will next be considered by the full Education Committee.
