Bill Summary
Relative to charter school finances. Education.
AI Summary
This bill aims to improve transparency and accountability in charter school finance. It outlines a new funding formula for commonwealth charter schools, where the state will pay a tuition amount to each charter school based on the actual per-pupil spending in the sending district. The bill also requires the state to provide funding for a portion of the per-pupil capital needs component in the charter tuition amount and to reimburse sending school districts for these costs. Additionally, the bill prohibits the transfer of funding between individual charter schools within the same network unless they are located in the same school district.
