AI Summary
This bill creates a new type of public school called a "Department charter school" that the Department of Education can establish by converting existing low-performing public schools. The bill requires the Department to solicit and evaluate applications from charter management organizations, educational management organizations, or other entities to operate these Department charter schools. The bill also establishes an Account for Department Charter Schools to fund their establishment and maintenance, allows the Department charter schools to receive federal grant funding, and applies certain existing charter school laws to Department charter schools. Additionally, the bill exempts Department charter schools from the Program of Empowerment Schools and prohibits collective bargaining agreements from limiting the authority of school districts to terminate or reassign staff of schools that are converted to Department charter schools.
