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.
