Illinois HB5162 amends charter school renewal requirements, focusing on addressing disparities and aligning missions.
Illinois HB5162 amends the Charter Schools Law to establish new criteria for charter school renewal. The bill specifies that failure to address racial, socioeconomic, or educational disparities or to align the charter mission and vision with the local school board's mission and vision are grounds for charter revocation or non-renewal. Charter schools must submit a remediation plan to rectify these issues. The State Board can reverse local board decisions if the charter school is in compliance and in the best interests of students.
