Bill > S1100

This bill amends existing Florida law regarding charter schools to allow Florida College System institutions and state universities to sponsor "job engine charter schools," which are designed to attract businesses that create jobs. It also mandates that specific tax funds collected within the attendance zone of such a charter school be provided annually to its sponsor, defining "attendance zone" as the original attendance zone of the public school when it converted to a job engine charter school. The bill also clarifies that these institutions can sponsor charter schools or job engine charter schools within their service areas to address workforce demands and allows them to deny applications at their discretion.
