AI Summary
This bill modifies Tennessee law regarding public charter schools, primarily by preventing a public charter school whose charter was renewed on appeal by the Tennessee Public Charter School Commission from later agreeing with its local school district (referred to as the Local Education Agency or LEA) for that district to become its authorizer. Additionally, the bill grants the Commission the authority to set the term for renewed charter agreements between five and ten years, rather than automatically assigning a ten-year term, providing more flexibility in renewal periods.
