Are two–way bilingual immersion charter schools exempt from Proposition 227 requirements?
Yes. Charter schools are exempt from the legal requirements that were added to the EC Section 300 (Outside Source) through Proposition 227. For example, a charter school is not required to obtain annual waivers of consent from parents of English learners who have opted to enroll a child in a two-way immersion program, and is not required to place students in an English language classroom for 30 days prior to placement in a two-way immersion program.
