Charter schools: moratorium.

Abstract

The Charter Schools Act of 1992 authorizes the establishment and operation of charter schools. Existing law generally requires a petition to establish a charter school to be submitted to the governing board of a school district, and, under specified circumstances, authorizes a petition to be submitted to and approved by a county board of education or the State Board of Education. Existing law prohibits the governing board of a school district from denying a petition to establish a charter school unless it makes written factual findings in support of one or more specific findings. This bill would express the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation containing specified policies relating to charter schools and would prohibit, notwithstanding any other law, the approval of a petition for the establishment of a new charter school until January 1, 2022. The bill would require, by January 1, 2022, the Legislative Analyst's Office to publicly issue a report that answers specified questions relating to charter schools, the effects of the moratorium, and the projected effects of those specified policies if enacted by the Legislature.
