AI Summary

This bill aims to address the financial impact of charter schools on sending districts. It requires the charter school application process to include an assessment of the financial impact on the sending district, and no charter application can be approved before the Department of Education presents a report on the financial impact. Additionally, the Department must annually request full funding from the General Court for charter school reimbursements, and if the funding is rejected, the Board of Education cannot approve any new charter school applications or expansions for the following school year.
