Can a charter be terminated?
Yes. During the term of the charter, the school can be terminated by the sponsor for the failure to: • Meet the terms of an approved charter, or any provision of law; • Meet the requirements of student performance stated in the charter; • Correct a violation of federal or state law; • Maintain insurance as described in the charter; and • Maintain financial stability. If the charter is terminated, the sponsor must notify the charter’s governing body at least 60 days before the proposed effective date of termination. The governing body may request a hearing by the sponsor and may appeal its decision. If the school board is the sponsor the appeal is to the state Board of Education. If the state Board is the sponsor, the appeal is to the circuit court in Marion County.
