Yes. Open-enrollment charter schools must prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex, national origin, ethnicity, religion, disability, academic ability, artistic ability (except as permitted by TEC § 12.1171), athletic ability, or the district the student would otherwise attend. See TEC § 12.111(a)(6).
