How does a public elementary or secondary school become a conversion charter school?
An elementary or secondary school may begin the process of conversion to a charter school only if at least 60% of the teachers at the school and at least 51% of the parents of students at the school have signed petitions requesting the conversion. If such conditions are met, the teachers and parents may appoint a committee to act as organizers for the school. The organizers must submit a proposal to the school corporation in which the existing school is located requesting conversion to a charter school.
