Amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), entitled "An act relating to the public school system, including certain provisions applicable as well to private and parochial schools; amending, revising, consolidating and changing the laws relating thereto," in pupils and attendance, further providing for attendance policy at charter, regional charter and cyber charter schools.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Public School Code of 1949 to require the board of trustees of a charter, regional charter, or cyber charter school to report to the department (presumably the Department of Education) each fiscal year the number of students who returned to their original school district or were otherwise removed from the charter, regional charter, or cyber charter school. This change aims to provide greater transparency and accountability regarding student enrollment and transitions between different types of schools.
