Bill > H388

This bill amends Section 89 of Chapter 71 of the general laws, which pertains to charter schools, by changing the conditions under which a charter can be revoked. Previously, the law allowed for revocation if a school failed to meet charter conditions, violated its charter, or if the board granting the charter substantially violated provisions of the law or its regulations. This bill clarifies and slightly rephrases these grounds for revocation, essentially maintaining the existing reasons for a charter to be taken away, ensuring that schools adhere to the terms of their charter and that the charter granting process itself is conducted according to the law.
