What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) publishes an

annual accountability report for each school district that measures the school

district's improvement. DPI must include in the accountability report certain

information about schools in the school district. Current law provides that a virtual

charter school is considered to be located in the school district governed by the school

board that contracted to establish the virtual charter school. If a virtual charter

school is established by more than one school board, the virtual charter school is

considered to be located in the school district agreed to by the school boards that

established the virtual charter school.

Under the bill, DPI is prohibited from including in a school district's

accountability report information about a virtual charter school located in the school

district if at least 50 percent of the pupils attending the virtual charter school are

nonresident pupils attending the virtual charter school under open enrollment.
